300 tdi makes a nasty clattering sound when starting from cold

I have just bought a M reg 1995 discovery. When starting it from cold, ie after standing overnight or for a few hours, it makes a nasty rattling sound for a few seconds before settling down and it then runs very smoothly. It sounds like the rattling noise is coming from the engine.

SOURCE: Discovery rear air suspension sitting down overnight

My car did this. I could actually park and feel my car raise up or down. Looking at my car it was sitting completely crooked as if I had hydraulics. lol I have a 2001 Discovery II. When I had it fixed at the dealer it was the rear airbag which is part of the air ride suspansion. I hope this helps.

I have recently bought an automatic td5 2004 with 73000 miles

Sounds like you may have a air leak on your fuel line if the pump is working a lot. Unless the ticking is as you turn the key in which case it's more of a click and is in fact the starter solenoid. May be best to re-post in the 2004 discovery section though as the 1997 is a 300-tdi and different animal all together.
