I get that exact same noise during startup and after fully warming up it reduces to intermittently especially during stop go traffic. Could be the VTC solenoid or the hydraulic lifters.

Cheers mate

Did it just start doing it? It's kinda hard to tell from the video but it almost sounds like an exhaust leak. If not that then maybe the lifters or the VCT. If it the VCT then it will basically sound just like a diesel.
