Default the scratchy sound happens only when u step on the throttle

and not if you let it drift without stepping on it.
pls guys, go test it out, if you have multitronic go do this test.
1) turn off your ignition, radio etc, handbrake up
2) turn on your ignition, handbrake down
3) put to drive and let go brakes
4) step on throttle gently as you move off and listen for any sound coming from undercarriage.

might not happen of car has been travelling for a while.
i get that everytime i leave it for at least an hour b4 driving off again.

i wonder why, i hate that sound. doesn't sound like abs thingy that some of u mentioned.
