Pretty sure it's normal, I'll listen to my own engine tomorrow. Perhaps a video of it would help out... :happy2:

Injectors...listen closely when the revs settle:

But, the N80 canister purge valve also creates this sound even louder when it goes.

Best advice for modern engines, is to listen to them and if any of the noises chance, then be worried. Not like buying an old car where all noises cause concern. :happy2:
