Rattle from engine

Probably is the chain and tensioner mate. Look at getting it replaced.
If you’re good with the tools it is something you can do yourself you can buy it all as a kit.

Gonna book it it again and if they not fix it I'll just do it myself because its annoying driving such a nice car and hearing that noise. Thank you for your help so far!!

After long two weeks finally got the car back. Vw have replaced the camshaft adjuster, timing chain, tensioner and the cam follower the car sounds so much different now. The only thing you hear is the injectors which is normal in these engines but it's running nice and smooth. Thank you for the help and I hope this will help someone who will have the same issue.

If you don’t mind posting could you indicate how much VW charged for this? Assume it was parts and labour. Thanks
