Hello there, my dad has a 65 plate golf sv which has a rattle from inside the airbag on the steering wheel. I was wondering if anyone has had the same issue. Vw has priced us £1100 to renew it. My dad has heard that there has been issues with the same problem with this model and year. 

Hi Richard....welcome to the Forum

I cannot see any recalls for this on the official government websites although there have been recalls on the Takata airbags that have been fitted to so many makes of vehicle.

Yours does not have one of this make fitted as far as I can determine.

However, sometimes you can get a scratchy sound coming from the steering wheel area and this is usually the rotary coupling that is causing it.
This is a cheap fix and worth carrying out before it affects occupant safety (assuming it is this causing the fault)
