Default Need help identifying faint rattling sound....

I only noticed this sound the other day when I had the windows down... but when I'm in 1st or 2nd gear and I take my foot off the gas, I hear a faint rattling to clicking sound coming from under the car. Any ideas on what this might me?

99 1.8T manual

thanks.

is it a clicking noise? could be the wastegate on the turbo. Just replaced my k03 this past weekend.

Default Possible BPV?

I know my dad's TT made a similar noise, but only when shifting. Turned out the BPV blew.
