Honestly, I listened to the sound in the video and couldn’t hear anything that would be abnormal. To me it sounds like most direct injection engines I’ve had. But hey, if they diagnosed it, hope it addresses your concerns

Have a listen to it again using headphones and try to ignore the 'normal' engine noise. I have never heard anything like that on any engine before as the noise itself is not coming from the engine but near the transmission. Only audible when in 'P' or 'N'. The noise is not audible if 'D' or 'R' is engaged, implying it has to do something with the Dual Mass Flywheel and the Clutch.

I found another video which sounds pretty much the same as mine and has the same problem:

o snap, yeah I heard that... hope they take good care of your car. Not easy knowing that it’s going to undergo major surgery this early on.
