Why is my Audi A2 making a rattling noise when I accelerate?

I recently noticed that my Audi A2 is making a loud rattling noise whenever I accelerate. It seems to be coming from the engine area. What could be the potential causes of this issue and how can I fix it?

This could be a sign of a loose or damaged exhaust system. I recommend taking it to a mechanic to have it checked and repaired if necessary.

It is possible that the noise is coming from a worn-out or damaged timing belt. You should have it inspected and replaced if needed to avoid engine damage.
