Don't recognise it.
But very much like the leather dash with the red bits on.

I'm trying to upload a video of the engine on tick over - sounds like a slight knock to me however, I don't know the N52 engine so I could be very wrong.

There's a known issue on the N52 with a slight tick from the top end, (think its hydraulic tappets but cant remember exactly) especially if its been stood. The good thing is its not a major deal, more of an annoyance as such but obviously you need to know what it is before buying. Hopefully someone with first hand experience will add to this.Simon Blythe wrote: ↑Fri May 26, 2017 6:22 pm I'm trying to upload a video of the engine on tick over - sounds like a slight knock to me however, I don't know the N52 engine so I could be very wrong.
Nice car by the way but I think you've been duped, its not a Porsche!

Haha it's not a Porsche - I had the same thought!!
I've read up on the tappets but it's not those, it feels like a slight grumble.

I also looked at this - not too sure about the interior though.

If it doesn't go after a few seconds then there is an underlying issue. If it's there after a minute or so I would not touch.MACK wrote: ↑Fri May 26, 2017 6:31 pmThere's a known issue on the N52 with a slight tick from the top end, (think its hydraulic tappets but cant remember exactly) especially if its been stood.

Make sure it's not just the ticking injectors though.

Definately not injectors - it a deeper rumble than that and it sounded lower in the engine than the head.

Daft question, but it was definitely in the engine rather than one of the ancillaries. Something along the lines of a pulley bearing noise that sort of thing.Simon Blythe wrote: ↑Fri May 26, 2017 9:45 pm Definately not injectors - it a deeper rumble than that and it sounded lower in the engine than the head.

I hope the black one checks out OK - that 2-tone interior looks fantastic!
Coupes because stunning!

Does the noise go away if the clutch pedal is depressed? If so, it might be the dual-mass flywheel.
I had this problem when I first bought mine but the noise went away after the DMF and clutch were replaced under warranty by Barons of Farnborough.
