RE: Engine noise from Cold Start

I've had the "bucket o bolts" a couple of times now.
Clears after 10-15 seconds on tickover.
Car is garaged, no bonnet vents, but only happens if its cold/wet weather when the car was put away and it hasn't been used for over 2 days.
In daily use it never happens.
Spoke to my salesman who said that he has had three other reports from customers all with manual Evoques. I don't know if this is only an issue with manual boxes???
Seems to probably be a moisture issue as it has never happened during the summer.
Another one of the cars wee foibles.Laughing

Had this about three times now. Last time very loud, and was relucted to 'go away' when revs increased.

I have experienced the same start-up squeal recently during several wet cold mornings.
Has the source of the noise been located?
Is there a fix for this problem?

I don't know if it was fixed as the car was rejected for numerous defects, this was just one of them.
However, the replacement did it once back when it was new in April. Not done it since, but now the damp weather is back...........
