Hi guys,
MK5 GTI FSI, Stock Engine
I serviced the car early January 2011. Used it till 3rd week of January. Everything was 100% fine.
Left it in the garage unused ever since till just 2 weeks ago.
Now when I start it up from a cold start, after the engine starts to idle at a constant speed (not that initial 1 to 2min where it's idles higher and comes down), a ticking sound starts to occur.
Sounds like when you are trembling in cold weather and your teeth are jittering.
I put in a new tank of RON98 thinking the old fuel has gone off... but nope.

In the video it starts when I start zooming in on the engine, and the sound source seems to be where I'm zooming into.
What is it? Should I be worried? Car drives fine though.
