Could use the expertise of the helpful folk on this forum. I feel like my car is much noisier that it used to be and seems to be noisier than other cars I've been around. I've attached a recording of the engine idling and there are ticking noises and other rough and repetitive sounds. Could this be lifters or something else? I'm coming up on 56k so I'd like to have it looked at by the dealership before the original warranty expires. As an additional note, I did have the transmission replaced under warranty in June 2020. The ticking sound seems to be from the front of the engine (facing the grill) and the other repetitive sound is from the driver's side of the engine.
