Yes, its the sound of the clutch plates coming together whilst in motion wouls suggest its nothing to worry about....both my 150 TDI Octavia and Golf GTD do this...can even notice on the move if you are a little unsympathetic on lifting the clutch following a change.

But why the sound come only when engine is running,not when its off..

Because the clutch plates and flywheel arent spinning when the engine isnt running.

I honestly think you are looking for an issue where there isnt one....ive had many VAG vehicles over the years, theyve all done it to some degree and the only car Ive ended up with clutch problems with was a mk5 Golf and that was for clutch slip (a known issue). Rest assured unless the noise is very loud an constant when the clutch plates are engaged you are fine...if its making alot of noise whilst running then you could have a failing clutch/DMF.

+1, most cars do it. Honda's of old were very noisy with this.
