Default 991.1 Gt3 noise

Hi guys

so 2014 991.1 Gt3, recently went for Porsche Service for the programes service, oil change m, etc. Car has 34.000km and had a new engine at 16.000km, a “G” series engine. Came from the dealer and parked the car noticing more noise than usual...after 3/ 4 weeks I went for a drive and the sound is much louder, what’s your opinion on the noise?
here’s a YouTube video I made.

thanks

I'm definitely not a mechanic, but is it possible that it is a lose exhaust component?

Does noise increase or vary with RPM?

I would take it back to the dealer and have them look at it.

I hope so... it’s now at the dealer...it’s not as loud in the interior ... but it doesn’t seem exhaust as it has a very steady rhythm ....

Curious, did the sound diminish when the engine oil reached operation temp?

Does it only make that noise when the engine is cold?

My .2 does that sometimes but it goes away as soon as the engine gets up to temp...

My noise is not as bad as yours though, but very similar to yours when my engine has not run for a few days.
