That's good to know on #3. I'll see if mine is also gone after the car warms up. For #4, I did take it to a dealer. We tried a couple of other cars on the lot. Mine is louder, but they all made the ticking sound. I definitely did not hear the ticking sound when I drove it during euro delivery (mild summer weather and had the windows down frequently.)

Not sure about this motor. But past 911 motors were know to have a metallic clicking or clanking noise on cold startup and was identified by many knowledgeable gearheads as noisy chain tensioners.

Right on. The humming was gone after a bit of driving. The ticking is just so dang noticable with the cabin so much quieter than previous 911's.
