Little tinny rattling noise on startup as if something is loose

Post by ridma »

Hey there guys,

Ive got a 2012 scirocco R with the CDLC EA113. On some occasions whenever the car is cold it makes a little tinny like rattle noise which is more prominent underneath the car. I opened up the bonnet and listened to the actual block near the cam area and no noise there. Its more prominent near the drive belt tensioner area more towards the back of the engine bay. It goes away once the car idles down. Any ideas as to what it may be? I can attach a link to a video of it too if it helps.
