Weird Rattle Sound on Startup

[Andromeda]

Hi, I recently just joined. I currently drive a SEAT Leon 1.6 TDI CLHB 2014 which I bought not long ago privately and and I just need to get someone’s opinion on what this rattle is.

It only does it after I’ve turned the car off and left it for a little bit mainly when it’s cold, but if I rev the car to about 1500 RPM it goes away completely and after some driving with the engine warming up, it goes away completely even at idle.

it sounds like it’s coming from the Cambelt area near the top of the engine. Im not sure what I could be so getting someone else’s opinion on this would be really helpful.

Could be a belt, a pulley, water pump. All sorts on that end of the engine. The tdi make so much racket.
Have a good look round and rock anything that moves to check fittings or bearings.

Post up what you find.
