Hi, after having petrol engines for 35 years I am having problems coming to terms with my Qashqai , is it normal to be rattling when cold for first 100 metres ok when warm only done 8000 miles from new.

For a diesel I find my DCI 1.5 remarkably quiet, this is the 4th diesel I've owned in the last 12 years. My 2.0 GTI Diesel golf sounded like tin box full of spanners when cold. :D

Could be worse, you could be driving a jag, even their petrols sound like a bag of spanners when they are cold.
