Default slight noise on acceleration

my 2019 has 30,000 on it ( i bought at 26,000) and when i accelerate from a stop i hear a slight noise that sounds like a vent closing right after i start to accelerate. It almoist sounds like a vent closing, a single clump sound. Is there a vent in the air intake or exhaust that would close with the beginning of acceleration?

FIGURED IT OUT! The airbox has two snap closures on the rear an it has fixed pins in the front. When i had the engine serviced the mechanic did not make sure that the front was locked into place. Undoubtedly when i would accelerate the top would open slightly and then would "clop" down to close. Fastened it down and the noise is gone. Cheap fix
