This passenger side underbody rattle is apparently a common problem, stemming all the way back to the MK5 gen VW Golf.
Here is a link to another video of a GTI owner fixing this issue with his MK6:

    I don’t think most of the dealerships even know about the rattle, let alone VW. Hopefully they can fix it. Point them to where it is. If they don’t, shoot some foam up into it. That’s what I would’ve done if I didn’t do this first.

    Hey, so in fishing them through you want them to go over the fuel line so when you cinch it down it pulls the line down to the bottom of that rail that contains the lines correct? Sorry I just want to make sure I have the right ideal. Considering foam but it seems like I’ll have a worse time doing the zip ties if I try foam first

    I have an English version and that crap noise drives me crazy . Mud guard behind the front wheel was loose - plastic plug came out, I fix that but the same story on the bumpy road , it is not 100% A/C issue or fan under the glow box , noise comes from out side and just wondering about spring bushing mount is gone. Car runs smooth , just passed NCT and tracking before hand was done. On the passenger side no fuel pipes in Eng. Version. I removed that guard from the floor too , going to put some foam sheets underneath to be sure that this stuff is not banging into the chessie.

    thanks for the advice but it was something else :) I`m driving Volkswagens since 1991 and I was building cars from scratch and converting them few times . Anyway if you have dictaphone at home - use it . I left audio recorder inside, below glove box, then at the ABS pump and finally under wipers cover at the spring bushing mount and tested while driving each time. The issue was replaced spring mount last October (generally entire front and back suspension with the wishbones is new) This bloody mount from Redex cause the noise and had no signs of wear , I replaced into old one and now I have silence like in the church :D / BTW another story is water leak inside the car below pedals in the outer corner below bonnet handle- 100% it goes from the chamber where is whipper motor - going to find it out tomorrow because I have enough meadow on the floor - accelerator pedal bracket stuck with the plastic of the pedal because of corrosion and l had circus to remove it . Interior of my Golf looks like rally car now :)) @@JacesOwnWorld

    @trollek100 @trollek100 oh yeah man, anything but OEM front strut mounts, and they seem to give so many issues with people. Mostly clunking and rattling sound issues. I just put all brand new suspension on my MK7 GTI, and went with OEM strut mounts and bearings, and there’s zero noises, where as with my BC Racing and ST XTA coilovers (that come with their own upper mounts, bearings, and camber plates), they were always noisy and clunky. Oh man that sucks about the water leakage! Hope you can remedy that.
