My Audi A4, 1.8T from 2004 makes a loud noise when starting the car. The noise comes from the fuel pump in the back and it is there everytime I start the car. While driving the pump does not make any...

The fuel pump takes a couple seconds to get up enough pressure. If it takes longer than that, maybe your filter is clogged. They get full of rust. Sometimes the car stumbles on heavy load, or won't even run above idle, but yours could be a mild case. Pulling the pump out can be a big job, so try the filter first.

2004 jetta - clicking noise left side of engine compartment. Car runs fine, starts fine. Belt problem?122,000 miles original parts.

Could be sepentine or timing belt.
More than likely a tensioner for serp belt or timing belt. It could also be the pulley for the alternator - a pretty common problem for VW's.
