Oh I see now. Nope it seems to operate as normal, starts easily every time.

Unfortunately it hasn’t made any difference whether I start it cold or hot. I’m at ends meet. I was thinking the N80 valve.

Didn’t work, changed auxiliary belt and tensioner too and that didn’t work

Awesome. Thank you, getting low on fuel now so I’ll fill up with some premium unleaded at a complete different garage and see!

Thanks for your reply! If it was pinking wouldn’t it be making the noise when idle and revving? cheere

2015 Audi A3 1.4TFSI CoD When I’m going low speed and low rpm with acceleration there’s a ticking noise from engine bay. Only happens when the car is moving, does not do it when it’s idling at all even if you rev it. Only happens when you have the accelerator pedal down a bit but instantly stops soon as you let off it. Does not do it when pedal is fully depressed or atleast can’t hear anything when it’s going speed. Please someone help this noise is driving me crazy and every time I think what it could be it doesn’t add up due to the symptoms above, cheers.
