Default Engine ticking after some fast driving, any ideas what it could be?
In this video:

https://www.mediafire.com/file/ywzz2...10045.mp4/file

the ticking sounds a lot worse than it is, but it's still not a sound that was there the other day. The sound is coming from the area where I am focusing my camera on. The sound is barely noticeable when the bonnet is closed.

My friend says it sounds like a hydraulic valve plunger. Could that be the issue? Oil level is good.

As it turns out, it was the high pressure due pump for the injection system. All good.

Did you replace the high pressure fuel pump to resolve the issue?

No. It's a normal sound apparently.

Sounds pretty loud in the clip. Has it always been the loud ?
I was told the same thing just before my valve spring broke. Replacement engine was much quieter.

Yeah it does sound louder in the clip than it actually is. ButiI have no power loss, no ordinary sounds, nothing. All sound and looks good.
