Hello,
I have a 2008 EOS FSI 2.0 Turbo. The car is rattling everytime I start in the morning or leaving it for couple of hours. I checked below and they are all looks good:
1- High pressure fuel pump. I opened it and find it fine, lubricated, and no sign or damage, it looks shiny and new.
2- Removed the tensioner and the chain cover on the driver side of the engine. The tensioner plastic is NOT broken and the tensioner was moving normally and the belt was not loosy.
3- Removed Oil solenoid, it looks clean and no dirt on it.
4- Car has new oil and filter, and I am sure previous owners maybe never changed oil.
5- Removed Timing belt cover and the belt looks good to me and the rattling sound does not seem to be from the timing belt side.
6- Removed engine cover, and nothing weird noticed there.
Couple more things I read here and there which they are : 1- Transmission FlyWheel and Oil hose lifter in the Oil pane might be dirty.
1- I do not know how to inspect Transmission FlyWheel.
2- If the Oil hose is dirty, I assume the engine light or maybe Oil pump light will come up.
I appriciate if you guys could help me with finding the cause of this sound.
Note: Please do not add TSI or any other type of engine issue on this post, this is FSI engine. Also, lets have this post for future reference for whoever will have this problem in future.
Thanks,
