Hi Guys I'm new to the forum and would like some advice - I have a
Passat 2016 B8 TSI with engine noise on COLD start up (42,000km).
Whirring sound from engine bay.
It does go away after a few seconds with the car idling & doesn't appear again for the entire day until the engines cold again.
I've taken it to VW and they've said its normal operational but I'm a little scared its timing belts or something grinding.
I haven't heard the noise on other Passat's or Tiguan when test driving from dealers.
I can share the video of the noise you can clearly hear it about 5 times.
