Knocking when i turn the engine off

[Jimble]

As above, when i pulled on the drive and turned the engine off there was a definite knock coming from under the bonnet, it did it about 10 times and almost sounded like the fan was catching on something but i've checked that and it's fine, i started it back up again and i think i can hear it with the engine running although a nowhere near as loud, the car seems to run fine so i'm at a bit of a loss??


Any ideas?

Its not the start of the timing chain going / losing pressure is it

Exhaust bracket somewhere loose/broken??
I've heard it many times on Tdi's and have just assumed the above.

Feck it. You'll only have it for a few more week won't you?

Egr valve?

Lol, 10 weeks potentially but just curious if it was something I should worry about? EGR valve could be a candidate.

Bet you don't give it a second thought once you're cruising round in that sparkly new mk7

Is there some beeps off the throttle body after it?
Does the car stop as you turn it off or judder?
Do you have the aircon turned on?
You have checked the oil level
