OP- Post a video with sound off to the side and hood down? If this were an older car, it sounds like some additive with lube for lifters might be worth it. Was the car warmed up when this video was taken? Compared to my vehicle, the sound on yours is rather loud.
the ticking sound is the direct injection. of course a video record could be louder since it's using a mic to pick up the sound

Sorry to bring up an old thread but been looking to see if anyone’s has this Extra noise either I’ve had and not realized or just started. Besides the direct injection ticking. I’m also now hearing almost like loose change noise. Anyone know what that could be. Like light tinny noise like really almost coins swirling in your hand? Replies would be appreciated!!

Mind started to sound like direction injection but louder and goes with the pseed of the engine. Took it to honda and they diagnosed that it's the pulley and belt. The timing was off apparently.

The pulley belt would have had nothing to do with timing though. Did the dealer tell you that? Our engines have timing chains.

They've replaced the timing chain and pulleys, didn't do anything. My guess at the moment would be the valve clearance, or something with the cams. Will have to go to a shop to get my valve adjusted see if that does anything. The sound started right after I did a pretty hard first gear pull to redline, probably messed up the valve nuts or whatever lol.
