    Engine Ticking Noise

    Hello - I have an '05 that's been making a ticking noise at idle after my engine warms up. I can't remember when I started hearing the noise but I've been noticing it more lately. I just changed the oil (Mobil 1 0W-40) and confirmed that the oil level is okay.

    I know that these engines tend to make a lot of valvetrain & fuel injector noise so I wanted to see if this level of noise is normal or not. I watched a handful of videos of other Gen IIIs idling and did not hear the same ticking noise so I'm a little worried.

    Here is a video my engine idling:

    Could anyone please advise if this is just regular valve clatter I'm hearing, or if there may be a problem?

    Thanks in advance.
