So iv finally fitted a used throttle body.... The noise is still there with engine cover off sounds like its coming from near fuel pump or maybe something under that. Again only does it when cold once warmed up it stops.

Shame that. it really did sound like it was coming from the TB too.  :thinking: Need to see it to really diagnose it. have you had any garages try to diagnose it?.

Well my mate had a listen when it went in for the cambelt and he said it sounded like coming from throttle bosy but obviously not. Il have either take it back or find a vw specialist and leave it with them so they can hear it in the morning on start up from cold.

That could well be the bugger and it sits right next to the TB too.
