Thanks for the replies guys - if it were fuel is there any way I could narrow it down to a component if it happens again?
Are there any fuel system components that don't provide error codes if faulting?

Stalling then failing to start 2009 TDI 170
Hi guys, I’m sorry for the incoming wall of words but I’m at a loss with how to solve this issue and want to include as much detail as possible to hopefully trigger an idea. Car’s been into the main dealers and they can’t find or diagnose any issues. As it stands I have no confidence in it and no so...

Re: Random internal beep/bong on cold startup
Thanks for the suggestions guys. It's not done it for a few days (no change in my routine) so I haven't been able to try eliminating things one by one yet..

Re: Random internal beep/bong on cold startup
Cheers Trix, I'd looked at this thread but I've heard the muted bong of the battery complaining (sitting in a car park with the radio on and engine off).

Re: Not sure what to call this!!!
Hi Martyn, I've noticed the same thing (also have a TDI 170 incidentally). It seems to happen mostly when its cold and going downhill. Feels almost like engine braking but I have a manual and am not shifting down.
It's on my list to mention when I eventually have time to get into VW
