Oil change then new worrisome noise
 

Changed oil (0w-30 cuz it was in the 5 qt jug at Walmart) and everything went smoothly and the engine was seriously quiet.

Then.... Much more noticeable clicking... Seems like the DI clicking but way louder.

Listen to this... Sound changes a few seconds into the video:

Sounds like my car without an oil change. I just got my BRZ 2 weeks ago and have 400 miles on it.

I think I just never noticed how loud the DI was while the car is warming up at idle

Our BRZ just starting making a similar sound. We did the oil change a couple thousand miles ago. We have an appointment monday to have Subaru look at it.

I noticed this in my car a while ago but thought nothing of it. I'm pretty sure this is considered "normal" but it doesn't hurt to ask.

It honestly sounds normal to me. Maybe I'm just used to the injector noise though after owning a WRX for 10 years.

Same boat... I hate the place... but it was closer to my house than Autozone...

I noticed you said 5qt jug. These motors take more than 5 quarts of oil if you drain it all.

I'd say that's valve train noise. If this happened coinciding with an oil change, I might worry something wasn't getting oiled properly. Could be a valve clearance off, though. Check your oil fill and add oil if you need it. If it persists and is out of the ordinary, bring it dealer. That's the nice thing about a warranty.

why not use the correct oil? and proper amount?

Anything to save a few bucks on your new $25,000 car.

try to add little more oil. one time i changed oil on my 97 mitata and had some ticking sound. checked oil level and it was fine but i added little more to be sure. then sounds went away.
