I recently got my MacBook Pro and I notice it's been making this weird clicking noise every 30 seconds to a minute. Anyone else experienced this issue?

Is it one click every time? And very soft? I have the same issue on my 2016 13", although nowhere near that frequency.

Yeah, it's one click and somewhat soft. I do most of my work in my room (so it's a quiet environment). It sort of bothers me, since I guess I'm not use to that sound. If I play music, I can't hear it, but just wanna make sure nothing is wrong with my 15-inch MacBook Pro.

Hi, check this other post out: https://forums.macrumors.com/posts/24236334/

I took mine back to the Apple store and the guy checked it out. He told me he hadn't seen the issue before, but it was clearly there, so he offered a replacement. It was built to order with a different keyboard than the standard in this country, so I'll have to wait a bit for the replacement, but I'll update that thread with my experience when the new one comes in.
