My car is a KIA Forte 2012, Automatic with 179,000 KM

I was just getting ready to have it Krowned (rust spry) and wanted to make sure the engine is sounding okay as it sounds different then it used to (AKA its getting old lol).....friends have said it sounds like the lifted are sticking

I made a short video of the sound....see link to the YouTube video below....thank you

Any chance it could be something less negative? I treated very well over the years ( changed the oil every 4-5,000 km) did all the maintenance etc.....thanks for the information

179,000 km is about 111,000 miles.  MMJ is right;  at over 100,000 miles this Kia is on burrowed time.
