I spoke to a VW specialist this morning as I'm having the same issue with my 1.8 GTI, he said it was just a faulty starter motor and that replacing it would be a waste of time because after 4-6 months the noise would return, its just a general fault of the mk4 golf series

I agree, got quoted stupid price from VW.

Got new sterter for £120 (inc VAT and delivery) and changed it myself . EASY !
