| I've long known about the lifter tick these cars are prone to but a few times over the last six months I've noticed this deeper tone knocking noise randomly show up. The fact that I can hear it in the cabin with the windows down has me a little worried since my last Z developed rod knock. However, it's frequency/symptoms seems a bit odd for that. Things I've noticed: -Matches revs but goes away above 1500rpm, or at least can't hear it. -Never does it when cold or at least I never hear it. -Only notice it after going for a drive and parking. -Last few times the noise has gone away after letting the car sit for a little while.
