Does it only happen when the engine is cold, or even when it's warm? If it's cold it could just be a rich mixture or something – mum's Megane makes a sort of similar noise when it's started cold and revved a little.
Otherwise, I have no clue.

If this car is a DSG variant then that's not a rattle (the sound is too blunt / muffled to be metallic), if I'm correct that's the hemolitz chamber in the exhaust system. How ever do you think DSG cars get the fart / blurt upon gear changes?

The fart noise is caused by the ECU pulling ignition timing when the DSG shifts.

It does it when the car is cold and warm, so basically all the time lol.Originally Posted by alexaescht

Book it in asap. For a manual that's quite strange!

Hows the idle/engine operation? There was an update for those relating to cylinder 1 & 4 misfiring sporadically.
P.s the DSG farting wasn't addressed to you OP.

Booked it in at Blacktown VW (where I bought it from) for the 23/4,
Engine idle/operation is perfect, I have had no issues whatsoever, apart from my door lock screwing with my head, which was fixed.Hows the idle/engine operation? There was an update for those relating to cylinder 1 & 4 misfiring sporadically.

Ooooh okay, I'm actually glad I didn't get the DSG in the polo, my previous Holden Cruze (LEMON) was automagic (magic that an auto transmission will fail more than 4 times in 39,000 kms/1year.

Sorry to steal your thread OP, the title seemed appropriate.
Would anyone happen to have a recording of what a normal 1.2 TSI engine should sound like at idle. I get paranoid every time I open the cars hood cause it sounds like a timing chain rattle. Its a 2010 model and I'm guessing its out of warranty.
