My 206kw sportline start to making this noise about 4 months ago. Never had it before. But now you can hear it every time u start the car first time of the day. Here is a YouTube link of my video. Just wondering if anyone else has that noise?

I understand the first part is, but what about the z, z, z, z, noise afterwards??

The clicks sound like the Exhaust valves / flaps.

They open and close through the start up process also...

Exhaust valves on top of the engine? That's where the noise is from. Does yours do it too?

If it's the Exhaust valves, shouldn't it does it every time when I start up? This noise only happens for the first start of the day when the car has been sitting there over night.

Exhaust valves are not at the top of the engine, they are at the rear of the muffler (exhaust tips)...

 

Mate, if your unhappy with my reply.

I would you suggest you take it back to your friendly ŠKODA dealership for them to diagnose...

The mechanics said something might be a vairator or a one way valve. Then that mechanic left. So the dealer is saying everything is normal now. That's why I am trying to find out a bit more. So the Exhaust valve is in the engine bay? I wouldn't ask if I did know. Thanks for your help.

I just googled it. I see. That's where the Exhaust valve is. Do they mean to make this noise every time when u start the car?

Doesn't sound normal to me at all; the buzz saw type noises are very odd and mine defo doesn't do it and I can't see why any ICE would make that noise unless it was fuelled by angry bees (or had a fault).

 

Take it back to the dealer.

Thanks. Mine didn't do it when I first got it. Then started like 4 or 5 months ago. Start with 3 buzz. Then 4 then 5. Not like 6 or more. They first said might be one way valve, then variator. Then they said its normal. But don't think they know. I will take it back to the dealer

It's in the workshop now. They are saying replacing the oil pump. So just waiting to get the car back and see if the noise is gone or not. I will let u know.

My Golf R makes that sound, but doesn't cut in and out. It just does that for 5 seconds before returning to normal. 

 

Same as this

Mine came from the top of the engine.

Just because the camera is facing the back doesn’t mean the sound isn’t coming from the engine bay. Surely you don’t think I’m that thick?

No, I am saying its a little bit hard to hear yours as your exhaust is very loud (nice sound)

I will let u know if the noise is still there or not after I get my car back. So currently is replacing oil pump.

Got my car back and the noise is gone. They replaced the oil pump. Said they think there's a faulty seal in the pump and the oil drained over night.

The initial noise or the buzzing ? She’s it still make the firs noise ?

The first noise is normal. Our GTI does that too. The buzzing noise is gone now.
