Talking Direct Injection Noise

the noise in our LS is pretty dang loud..
like at a traffic light it sounds like valve tapping noise...
anyone find this annoying? I guess it's a trade off for having DI....

I agree. It threw me off when I moved from my GS400 to the LS.

The first time I heard it I thought there was something wrong with my engine.

Then after 2,000 miles I decided just to ignore it and live with it.
