I had one HLA replaced when I had the dealer refresh the engine at 125,000 miles. So far, it's a lot quieter when it's cold, and damn near quiet when it's all warmed up...

It's most likely a hydraulic lash adjuster (HLA) which is normal until warm-up.

Yeah, I think so. It is then a normal procedure.  :)

so does mine.....after first having the 800 model which is very quiet, I was really concerned with the loud ticking that my 1500 makes at start up..especially when it has been sitting for a while.  But I've gotten used to it..and with the stereo blasting, I don't even notice it anymore... ;)

Mine ticks a lot worse than that, hot or cold - has since new.  One of these days I'm going to get in there  and find out why.

Hello

When the engine is cold, a slight ticking sound is heard in the background, is this normal:
