Hi, my car is making a tapping/knocking noise only between 2k and 3k rpm and the whole car shakes a bit.. FIne on idle and the rest of the rev range!! New plugs(all tight), new oil an 0 errors on diagnostic tool and pulls strong!!
Does this sound like a bent valve a lifter or bottom end? Dunno

You can hear it it better in the last 4 seconds of the video!! It does this basically since I bought it, I just noticed it after because on idle and driving you don't hear anything, only if you let gaz when you are passing next to a wall with the window open you can hear a very soft "tsc tsc tsc", but only between the 2k and 3k rpm!!
What I find weird is that it only does this on those revs
