New rattle/tapping from 987 Boxster

[Bolts100]

Hi all

I've noticed a new noise today on my 2011 2.9 39k miles Boxster. It's quite tinny louder than the normal tapping noise which I'm used to in this car and my previous caymans and only there when revs are between 1800 - 3000 and only when engine is warm.

40k service was done 1500 miles ago.

I've taken a video of the noise, it's my little one in the background saying it sounds like a tractor ??

Any suggestions welcome!

Many thanks
Steve

Hi Steve .
Might be a sticking lifter or one of the exhaust shields come loose or rusted through.
Good luck hope you get it sorted out.
