a new development..

when I start it up- it sounds fine

a few seconds without touching the gas pedal I hear a slight click clack tic toc noise coming from somewhere down below or in the engine, i'm not sure

the noise becomes louder and very noticeable around 2k rpms

anything higher then that the engine takes over and i'm not sure if the sound is there or just muffled out by the engine

less noticeable after driving and warmed up

typically occurs when engine is at a colder operating temperature

I looked underneath the car for rotted heat shield or anything metal vibrating and found nothing

the car does not seem to be negatively affected performance wise..

--> any ideas? Thanks for reading
