Hi Recently took ownership of a 2010 1.8TFSI A3 Sportback and I have this weird noise it gives on start up. I did a bit of a Google and saw a few saying its quite common, but its still bugging me so thought I'd ask here for any other comments. I've got a recording which isn't the best but gives a bit of an idea, can hear it kick in about 12.5 seconds in. https://youtu.be/qgiU5GVAQYQ I've got to take it in under warranty as it's drinking through oil at the minute :-( but wasn't sure if this is normal or not and is something else which needs mentioning at the same time? Thanks Ads

Went to start the a5 (1.8 tfsi) and it wouldn't turn over with a rattling noise coming from the engine. Had the code read by a mechanic friend of mine and its pointing to chain failure! Does anyone have experice of chain failure and what sort of costs a like to come with it? I'm hoping there's minimal engine damage as the car was stationary but you can never tell! Not the best start to a Monday!
