Any thoughts on the ticking noise at idle when stopped?

I am sorry to say that my experience with the ticking noise on a 2012 CS was a bummer. There is an evacuator pump on top of the engine which makes the noise which is very noticeable when you stop and are idling . If you type ticking noise in the search bar you will find many posts. It drove me completely crazy and the dealer was unable to do anything about it. I eventually sold my Cayenne due to this and some other vibration issues. Here is one of my posts with pictures about this.

Hmmm, that's a bummer. Sorry it ruined your experience. I can live with it. Just wanted to make sure it wasn't something wrong. Definitely not a sound a $100k+ vehicle should make though.
