Is it more a tick than a click? Which is to say tick-tick-tick-tick-tick, kinda fast, one after another. I noticed this recently on my car, don't know how long its been happening. Only reason I noticed is I pulled into a parking garage and had a window down, and it was quite loud. Definitely coming from the engine, can't say I can localize it to the belt however.

That could be your engine needing a valve adjustment. You can hear it with your windows down and your car's in an enclosed space (like a drive-thru window). The sounds will bounce off the walls so that you can hear it.

Do you think we need to bring it to the dealer to solve?
or a shop can do it?

Any idea why water turns to ice in the freezer? Does it have anything to do with the cold? I'm not retarded bro. That's why I mentioned it, I don't know how long it's been happening as I can't normally hear it driving. Only the other day when I had the sound reflected back at me did I first hear it.

brought it to a dealer we compared it to another tsx and they had the sound too but less noticeable they said since i have 80k miles
my valves are probably just making more noise.

according to them
