Why does my Audi A3 engine make a rattling sound?

I have noticed that my Audi A3 engine has started making a rattling sound recently. It seems to be coming from the front of the car and it only happens when the car is idling or accelerating from a stop. What could be causing this and what should I do?

The rattling sound is most likely due to a problem with the timing chain tensioner. This is a common issue in Audi A3s and can lead to serious engine damage if not addressed.
