Sorry for lack of info......
Its a 1.8 se manual, the noise is only there at start up from cold,
dissapears after
a couple of mins driving, there is no noise after that, drives well, no
noise when braking or anything else, only at start up. Sounds like a
"rattling / grating" noise. then dissapears when engine warmed up. also no
error codes. HTH.
