noisy idle noise - "diesel" like sound

Hello again to this great community!

I decided to write here for an issue im having lately. My 2.7 (2003) boxster engine is doing a "knocking" sound on idle.

About the noise:
- Almost Irrelevant if warm-cold engine.
- It Reminds me of a diesel engine car sound ( )
- No CEL or anything related, spark plugs/coils/oil new

Only thing im a bit guilty is that the sound started happening when i switched to 95 Octane, but maybe its irrelevant ?

No idea of the Serpentine belt condition by the way.

Thanks to All!
