I made this account just when i sold my old S2000 so i never had the need to post something - now i bought another one since i regretted it so much.

Am i being paranoid or is this clanking noise you hear in the clip nothing to worry about? I‘ve listened to soundfiles about piston slap, valve alignment issues, rod knock, clutch fork rattle and so on, but i‘m not sure what could cause this?

It‘s a MY00 AP1 F20C2 with roughly 93.000 miles.

Thank you all in advance for your help!

 

Normal.

 

Thanks for the quick reply! Any idea what causes this? It‘s really subtle i know but for me it sounds like something is loose and jumps around somewhere in the engine.

 

Sounds like mine and has been like this ever since I bought it 100.000km (62k miles) ago.
I always thought it might be piston slap but it never got worse, every oil analysis looked fine and still uses the same amount of oil since when I bought it... so...
