When I come to start the car, before the ignition, I hear a kind of water noise from in the engine bay. Car is running fine, just thought it was strange. Only really does it when cold or after a short journey. Car is an FR TDi

If it's a short, slurping, gurgling noise it's the fuel pump priming. It's more noticeable when the tank begins to get empty. Discussed many times before and perfectly normal. If not, I don't know what it is.:)

Yup, I hear this too. (sounds like its coming from the back of the HU in the engine bay).

Normal, apparently
