Ticking noise on startup when cold....

That sound like a clutch or dual mass fly wheel problem. It will be ok then one day it will just loose drive....
It's just had a brand new clutch fitted after the old one (9000 miles from new) burnt out. Dealer quoted £2200 then dropped it to £700. I told him that I had heard these dual mass flywheel had some issues but he responded "not at this mileage".
 
At start up my van sounds very knocky. But then its been like that forever, so I don`t pay any attention to it.
Once warm, it sounds fine.

I am still getting used to the rattly sound effects of a diesel VW. This noise, though, is a new thing that comes 1000 miles after a new clutch which failed after only 9000 miles. The van is not two years old yet and I have the added complication of having to go through the Motorhome dealer if I reach the point where it's not remedied in a reasonable time and I want to reject it. Have sent off the video to the dealer and will see what they say. Plus, it was still hot after a 142 mile trip back from Wales.
