Oh, sorry, my mistake. It's an automatic

Hi Steve, 67,500 miles and yes the noise disappears as soon as the revs start.

Or, could be the clutch pack and or dual mass flywheel?

Hi Steve, thanks for replying 🙂 I'm hesitant to dismiss anything at this stage. The noise only really happens when my foot is lightly on the accelerator but not putting any revs through the engine. Because there is no load on the engine I was thinking it could be maybe belt tensioners! Do you agree that the low pitch rattle isn't normal?

Hi 👋 the video attached is an A3 1.5 TFSI auto, parked and idling. To me the engine has its usual/normal ticking noise but, there is also a low tone rattle noise (wait for it, it's not there immediately in the video). It's not there all the time but does happen every time my foot lightly touches the accelerator before any revs kick in. Does this engine noise sound normal, any ideas if it is a simple fix or should this be concerning? Any help/advice, opinions would be fantastic. IMG_6723.mp4
