Put my mind at ease! 997.2

Thankyou!!!
 
My 996 3.4 has always 'ticked' on top of the right hand bank.

I think I'm worrying myself tbh, I've just got the car running 100% and my mind is looking for the next fault!

I think what's made the ticking sound more apparent is having the roof down! You sit at the lights in a built up area "tick tick tick tick tick"

Does the ticking come from the offside? (Drivers side UK)

Just turn the wireless up. all ticking stops then :D :floor:
 
Sound clip sounds perfectly normal to me .

Your exhaust flange studs have been replaced .. looks like stainless bolts and i think you had your spark plugs replaced in the last 6 monthes .

Some sort of treatment , wax oil etc on the tandem pump cover would be a good idea though .

At 3k the high lift tappets kick in .. i use that baseline as a test for a few things when diagnoseing faults .. its also a little hard to rev the car when stationary and hold it at spot on 3k rpm .

Yes, I've had 4 new lambda sensors, MAF, carnewal exhaust, spark plugs, coil packs. Next job is changing from 0w40 to 5w40 oil
