Noise in car when idling

Has anyone have a problem with hearing a noise that I thought was the blower fan but its not its like a ticking noise so I had the dealer check it and they said it was the fuel injectors but I never had a car where I could hear that in the car

Most modern engines have direct injection which is noticeably noisier.

I had that same issue and didn't put it together it was the vented seats. They're louder than you would think.

Mine is a 4cyl and the ticking noise at idle is very noticeable. If you hear cricket noise then the dealer can replace the pump for you.

I agree, the injector tick on the 4cyl models is quite loud, especially with the window open and you're idling next to a row of cars.
