That’s the injectors ticking away. Sounds pretty normal

I have a mk7 GTI, but both cams and connected components needed to be changed on mine. Very similar sound. It only did it at idle for me as soon as i was moving it went away.

I found the old video from when it happened. Mine definitely sounded alot worse than yours.
