Cold Start Chatter, DMF issue?

Hiya Guys,

Noticed a strange chatter which sounds like its coming from the gearbox.

It's only after a cold morning start and the chatter is intermittent and goes completely once warm.

Bit of searching suggest a possible DMF issue but I'm not confidence cos the majority that have this issue have a constant, 'marbles in a can' rattle type noise.

What you guys think?

Here's a sample I used on my phone, apologies if its a bit crap :cry:

It's a TDI 170 Stock (DSG Gearbox)

Thanks for any replies :)

The car's been stood for 8 hours today so I'd consider this to be a cold start....

Flick the key and it purrs like a kitten with no sign of any noise at all :?

Gearbox chatter, normal sound on a cold morning start?...I'm lost :? :fall:
