Any thoughts? I'm not very familiar with boxer engines and not sure if this is a common sound heard or not.

Here is a quick video of the sound.

Sounds like a normal FA20 to me. The change between the port and direct injectors still messes with my mind.


If you have an auto and I am missing something it could be your vacuum pump. It is a known issue. Not hearing that in your clip though.
