TDI SEL Premium diesel engine… sounds like a rod knock until after warming up. diesel fuel leaks at the fuel filter side including the housing. Smell of diesel gas long after the car has been sitting idle.

Can you please shoot a quick video with your phone so I can hear the noise? That way I can tell for sure what's going on. You can upload it here with your response. Please start a new question for the fuel leak issue. Sorry, we only handle one problem per thread, please post your new question here, you must be logged in.
