I have a new Amarok and have the same issues as you. Windows sound like they are a little bit open and the bonnet vibrates in front of the driver. I have a problem with the front camera or sensors not automatically turning on when in D and parking...have you taken it back to the dealer? Mine is going back this week for them to take a look.

Hi Sam, Unfortunately mine was off from the very start, back in June 2023. I had faith the local dealer was trying to look after me and was as unimpressed with the delivery as me (mine was delivered by PrixCar then handed to the dealer for first registration and extras). I’m now left to deal directly with VW Australia , they won’t support the dealer and insist the shaking and characteristics mentioned are intended in the operation of the vehicle. I couldn’t even get a dollar figure from the dealer of purchase to re sell it as a used vehicle, they did not want it in their showroom. I’m booked in next week for an independent assessment to further my Consumer rights of repair, replace or refund. Good luck.

@@greenthumb7241 all the stuff you mentioned I have had from the start as well. I took delivery 2 weeks ago. On the freeway I was getting some steering feedback like the wheels were slightly out of alignment. Are your front camera and proximity sensors working OK? Might be worthwhile mentioning that you know others that are having similar issues...?

Thanks, they and I know I’m not the only complaint. VW flat out refuse to check the transmission, I suspect the 10R60 torque converter is at its limit of 600Nm with the LionV6 @1750rpm, which is exactly when it shakes the most intensely, the frequency of the shaking is consistent with similar torque and revs when travelling at various speeds. A slow speed 18km/h at 1750rpm up hill can reproduce the shudder and rules out tyre and tail shaft balance. There are technical bulletins in the US for this transmission whining, shuddering and the like, mine has all of the undesirable traits. I wouldn’t be surprised if VW have specified and used their own ATF in the Amarok version instead of the Ford spec ATF and it’s contributing to the undesirable traits, especially as the trans is operating at its limit all the time when paired with that motor. By the way VW Australia have said, all new V6 diesel Amarok shudder and whine so it’s not a fault, it’s operating as intended. Authorised VW technicians can not reproduce the speed detection failures in the service bay, so, again, not a fault as far as they are concerned. I have a picture of the dash on a new Amarok showing 110km speed limit detected on Glen Osmond Road, (60km/h zone), have offered to send it in, they don’t care for a copy. Definitely regret purchasing the new Amarok.

@@greenthumb7241 bought some new ATs and had the wheels aligned and feedback is much improved. It's going into VW tomorrow to check the bonnet and central display unit. Good luck.

Cheap plastic lasts longer

Updus about how the VW you have is doing please

due to ford parts

What chain

So sad when a bitter person who cannot afford one bags out vehicles that he cannot buy , guess you drive a triton 😂😂

Performance is better for me together with the prices compared to the other brands
