MK6 90TSI weird ticking sound at idle

[Has]

Hey mate it can be lifter noise too, i had it in my gti mk6 and luckily it was still under warranty so dealer is changing all the lifters at the moment

My 118tsi made odd noise on start up... was still in 3 month dealer warrenty... all chain, pullys etc. Etc. Done under warranty. Apparently 2k job? Not sure tho if thats true... the chains start to strech after time... mine was at 83k kms

I heard only tensioner is 1k job including labour. I had the warranty left 3 month and returned the vehicle to dealer to fix, found out broken lifters. Now they changing it, taking more than a week now but i dont want them to rush. Do it slow do it properly

Same problem and same solution, fuel lines that run in the frame under the footwell
(I put a little foam in the frame and now the ticking has stopped)
