    Is this engine knocking sound?

    I am not sure it is knocking or not.

    You can here the repeated hammering sound between injector noise.

    The engine is Skyactiv 2.0 liter engine.

    I recorded the engine sound using voise recorder.

    You can download below.

    I hear what your talking about but don't think it's anything to be concerned about.

    We're you holding your recorder inside the engine bay? That was pretty loud.

    Thank you for your answer.

    I put voice recorder 30cm away from the engine. ( not inside the engine bay. but you can hear tapping noise from 40 sec in the file)

    I can't re-open the file.

    Keep in mind. I'm a driveway mechanic, not a trained or licensed mechanic. So if you have deleted the file put it back up so others can hear and give their opinion.

    Mazda3 GS Skyactiv engine noise
    Year : 2012
    ODO: 16000km
    (2 Liter gasoline direct injection engine)
    I did not think this was normal so I took it back to the dealer and the mechanic said there was nothing wrong with it.
    I've been to a dealership and complained about this annoying tick and he say it's normal.
    I don't know why the engine makes tapping noise.
