Does anyone know what can it be
in the morning after 100 meters passed, in left side of car (maybe around pedals or in engine bay) something make sound like the valve is closing, only one "click", everytime I start car after 50-100-200 meters, sometimes quieter sometimes louder?

Yeah, think I hear something similar on my 6R0 1.2Tsi. I've always assumed it to me something to do with the brakes as it happens round about 10mph ish (going slowly anyway) It's like a little valve going thunk type sound (very quietly) that you appear to hear as you pass a certain speed. (I think it comes from where I imagine the brake servo to be within the engine bay) There's too much clever stuff going on with modern vehicles, if you can't fix it with a spanner or a hammer it shouldn't be allowed... grumble, grumble. :)

I think we all talk about the same thing :D
sometimes I barely hear it, but sometimes sounds very odd can be heard over radio on "normal" volume
I also think this is normal, but am a bit curious what is it, if anybody knows? :)
and sorry for my bad english :P
