3SGE tapping noise, moderate throttle Sign In

What you think? Is this a bad valve?

Happens around 2500-3500 rpm on warm engine (after 5 minutes driving).
Disappears when wide open throttle, but only in higher gears.

Good audio:

Maybe unrelaed but it also has unstable idle. I fixed a vacuum leak but that didn't make a difference.

We can't diagnose a noise like that.

It's hard enough to find that noise being right there and able to use a stethoscope and touch things.
