Hello everyone, I hope this hasn't been discussed elsewhere and I've missed it, apologies if so I don't use the forums much.
I have an A4 Avant 08 Reg, BRE engine code. 2.0ltr TDI, Auto transmission 70,000 ish miles. when I start the engine from hot I get an engine rattle, it hasn't done it from cold first thing in the day yet. Two conflicting views from mechanics I respect, one of whom is an Audi fan
One suggests it is the dpf in the exhaust that has come loose in the exhaust hence we only hear it when the system has expanded with heat..............or the other view is transmission damper mount.
Your wealth of experience would be appreciated in ruling either one out for definite.
Thanks
Stephen
