			[QUOTE... valve tapping noise is pretty common in the flat sixes Porsche produces.  My 01 does it a lot.  It's like a clock behind me at idle.  Just a quirk of the engine - not a problem.QUOTE] 
 
I hope you are right.  My '07 base has a slight ticking at idle, when cold.  It seems to go away when the engine is warm and run above idle.  The dealer says it is normal for this engine.  I choose to believe him for now.  We'll see what develops, if anything.
