So I did an oil change today - been a long time since I last did one. Moved from 10W-40 to 5W-40 - Shell Helix Ultra Engine Oil
I also bought a new voice recorder so decided to try recording the sound of the engine
I was wondering if anyone can hear any issues? Everything is stock.
Does everything sound normal?
I'm a bit worried about the sound I can hear at 1:18 second - I'm not sure what it is.
Also the high pitched electronic noise at around 49 seconds, is that normal?
I've always heard it when I turn my key to the first position but never known if this is normal.

Any issues or suggestion please do post below.
I was considering changing the spark plugs, something I've never done before. I don't know if it's possible to hear if there's a problem with them from the engine sound.
I don't have the tool to open them up so not yet inspected them.
Also it should be noted I usually start the car with the clutch pedal pressed in, I believe this is what it said in the car user manual so there is a change in pitch when I take my foot off the clutch
The 2nd recording was the very first time I started the car after the oil change and new oil filter was installed.
