Default Engine Noise

Hi,

I'm not sure whether my car's engine sounds normal and would much appreciate your opinions. I've only owned the car for a couple months at this point, so I may be worrying for nothing.


Thanks in advance!

I don't hear anything unusual.

Sounds good, not even ticking. I just bought a 2014 RX with 151K mi, 2GRFE of course, and it has a slight tick at idle. Trying to ignore it as I hear it's very common and of little concern.
Going to try a qt of tranny fluid though. If that old cure doesn't do it then the 505 oil treatment. Have a friend who swears it cured his ticking V6 Toyota truck with 180,000mi.
Enjoy your Lexus!
