Loud popping sound coming from chassis of Macbook Pro 15"

There is a very loud popping sound coming from underneath my keyboard. It has nothing to do with the audio, it is something hardware that is actually popping (I can feel the vibration sometimes). It happens very rarely, but seems like something that could be a problem.

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 11.6
