Whining / Ticking Noise (video)
Hey all..
Just heard a whining / ticking noise for the first time yesterday. It sounds like a whine with a slight knocking / ticking noise on idle - more noticable inside than outside. I let the car sit to warm up then did a 20 mile highway run to work and it was still there. The sound disappears as the RPM's rise but returns when back down to idle.
The car is a 2013 Sedan, 4.5K miles with first oil change performed at 1.1K miles. No warning lights, nothing. Now here's the curveball... I first heard this noise when the gas tank was down to the last full quarter. After filling up, it went away.
Here's a link to the video (sorry the volume is low but after a few plays you will hear it).
thanks in advance.

In your case i don't know. You should hear it more from the outside than inside
