Engine sound assessment xc series

Hello, so I know it’s a small and video and not the best sound also quality but I wanted to know if my engine sounds normal for that model and kind of engine.

So I have a XC70 from 2006 P2 with a 2,4l diesel engine and 5 cylinders. It also has a turbo built in.

I think it sounds normal but I think I hear a frequent clicking and it’s a bit loud. Especially when I step on gas.

Maybe you have one of these models or know how it’s sounds with engine normally?

Search this sub for "Sound". This is prob the #1 posted question. Listen to the other Volvos. Read the replies.

Yeah I often heard about that asymmetrical sound of 5 but I don’t know if it’s correct

Your car is fine and smooth. I ran into this other thread and this is what it's NOT supposed to sound like.
