  • Tapping on cold start.



    Hey guys got a tapping sound when I start my car. Only happens on a cold start up!
    It’s a 2.0 cdti for those of you that don’t know.

    Any ideas would be great.

    As we are not on Facebook, it won’t be my oil pick up seal, dpf or dmf. Error free leds wont fix it but will probably give me errors 😂



    Cheers

        Sounds like it’s near the aux belt?

                Sounds like when my aircon pump started chirping. Turn on the aircon does the noise go away?

                    Thanks

                    I’ll try it tomorrow morning, my air con wasn’t so cold today so maybe pointing to an issue there.....let’s see. [emoji1305]

                      Failing that slip the aux belt off and spin each pulley. When was the cambelt last changed and water pump?

                          Probably due a change very soon then. Sure its like 60k or 4 years which ever is sooner. I may be wrong as my wife will tell you

                              Definitely not the air con pump.
