Ask ....I don't Bite....much!
Audi A4 Avant 3.0 TDi Tiptronic Quattro 75k 2006
I have owned the car for about 2 months and am generally very pleased with it.
Until a friend of mine pointed this out I hadn't noticed it but when starting from cold and occasionally when hot, upon starting there is a rattle like the starter hanging on or oil pressure trying to catch up. It lasts for no more than 2 seconds each time but doesn't do it every time.
The car has just been serviced with genuine filters and oil etc.and MOT'd yesterday with no comments or suggested repairs necessary. Admittedly I hadn't noticed before the service and therefore never mentioned it. There doesn't seem to be a connection between the noise and the oil light as the oil light goes out immediately.
Has anyone else experienced this or heard it on another vehicle or is there a commonality with this issue?
I look forward to any expert comments.
Thanks
Marty
