Don't think so,its top end of engine I think
It's a 1.8 petrol.
There's no DMF on it.

At a punt I'd guess it was the phasers cold startup rattle before oil has recirculated from sitting. Lasts anywhere from 1-3 seconds
If it is that noise, according to the dealer it's normal and only when it makes that noise when the ending has been running is it an issue
