  1. SoupDragon's post in Timing Chain sound at cold start - 1.2 TSI 110 was marked as the answer   
    Every car I have ever had, back since they replaced horses, has made a short-span rattling noise at cold start, just for 2 or 3 seconds. Some more than others. I have always thought it was the oil getting pumped up from the sump to the valve gear and all around the engine's moving parts, and I have always waited that short time before putting any stress on the engine. I have a 1.2 TSI 110 and it sounds just like you say, a slight rattle on the first cold start, and i just accept that it takes a short time to get the sump oil up to the top of the valve gear. I don't think that is unusual or a problem, but I would not power the engine until it has stopped.
