Back again!

Check engine light and codes come back, Likely taking it up soon for a bit more of a look over, have noticed a slight petrol smell when starting which from what I’ve read is likely due to the purge solenoid

Wanting to check if I’m either just hearing things or just not car savvy, but does this sound off at all?

I’ve been trying to listen to/watch other videos posted here and compare but man my tinnitus makes it hard to tell what’s normal engine sound and what’s my ears

Sounds ok to me. A little clattery perhaps but I didn't hear anything untoward. What mileage has the engine done?

At that mileage I think one can forgive a little clatter!
