Had my mk7.5 GTD for a few months now and it drives superb.
Only thing bugging me is a ticking noise from the driver's side of the engine. It's not audible on tickover, but starts as soon as you press the throttle and seems to speed up with the revs.
At first I thought noisy injectors but it still happens on the overrun when I'm coasting in gear - which I wouldn't expect.
So i think it's solely related to engine speed.
Noise is the same when the engine is hot or cold.
Car has only done 4500miles, so could it be a dodgy tensioner or pulley? Or does this engine just sound like that anyway?!
Any ideas?
Thanks
