A

It is likely that your engine needs an oil change. Low oil levels can cause tapping noises in the engine. It is recommended to get an oil change every 5,000 miles to maintain optimal engine performance.

J

There may be an issue with the valves in your engine. They could be worn or damaged, causing the tapping noise. It is best to take your car to a mechanic for a proper diagnosis and repair.

S

It is possible that there is an issue with the timing belt. It could be loose or worn, causing a tapping noise. This should be checked and replaced if necessary to avoid any further damage to the engine.
