@SD, of course engine design is the same haha, I was just clarifying that I have a LHD so nobody would confuse my passenger side with the RHD passenger side which is the opposite Well than if that's the case, could the ticking noise have something to do with my primary belt?

I managed to get the noise on tape with the engine on idle, here it is:

Noise

This is recorded with my phone sitting right between the right hand side of the intake manifold and the engine's firewall, that's the place where you can hear it the most. It just appears and disappears sort of sporadically, tipically after I slowly and gradually rev the engine up to 3000 rpm and then drop it to idle, it appears for avout 10 seconds and then goes away, and as said before, happens also mostly when driving betwee 2000-3000 rpms...

I've also heard one of the injectors ticking when listening to it from under the bonnet but that is normal I guess and it does not make that much if a noise to be heard also inside the cabin

@TC, It's not the purge valve unfortunately, unplugged it and still the same thing.
