Possible lifter noise?

[Andrew Daniels]

Hi guys, I was wondering if anyone could tell me what this noise is and how to fix it. It is coming from the passenger side. noticeable when on idle and when revving the engine. the car has a full exhaust and tune.
Please see the video attached

It's hard on vid. Tick is usually valve train, a knock is bottom end. Ticks can also be caused by exhaust leaks. That said it just sounds like a normal rattle can LS to me

When did you notice that noise ? Has it changed over time ?

Thank you. very hard to tell on video but the noise is very very noticeable. I might tighten the extractors and see if that fixes the problem...

noticed it yesterday after driving it. It always used to have a slight tick but went away and it's come back and even louder now

Drop in a bottle of Nulon lifter free up. See if it gets less noisy after a few 100 km.

How long have the headers been on?

Sounds like a normal Gen4 lifter ticking,

Original Lifters ?
If so, how many k's ?
