970.1 Panamera Turbo S Lifters

Hey everyone, recently purchased a 2012 Porsche Panamera Turbo S and noticed the lifters being noisier than usual (in my opinion). Can anyone help advise me if this is normal? Any feedback is much appreciated. I have attached a video of it to this post.

The car was previously Porsche dealer maintained, so I would assume Mobil 1 0W-40. Sound I would say is the maybe a little louder when it’s warm. I have only owned the car for about 2 weeks

I was concerned also at first, but have had that noise for several years now. I believe it's normal and from the high pressure fuel pump/direct injectors... makes a tapping noise or clicking. Hearing it from several other cars with the same noise gave me some relief. Still a little daunting though.
