Popping sound coming from 2016 15” MBP w Touch Bar

Anyone know what could cause a random popping sound from the keyboard/mouse area sporadically on a 15” 2016 MacBook Pro w touch bar? No damage at all and it just started happening every 10-15 minutes.


I know it’s out of warranty but just seeing if this is something that can be fixed at no or low cost.


thanks!

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 11.0
