Yeah it's kind of like that, I've has it for 1 winter so far but it just started recently. The dealer is saying it's the fuel injector and they're aware of the issue but there is no update for it yet. I still haven't had time to seek another opinion. But it's coming from the left side of the engine when standing in front of the car.
Does your car do the same?
I have a video of the noise lemme try to see if I can post it.
