2021 5.0.
I love the truck, plenty of power, super-smooth ride, etc. But it seems to make a lot of funny noises while idling. Is this normal for this engine? I know of the 2021 5.0 changes compared to previous model years. Seems like it makes a lot of strange noises during the first 2-3 minutes after cold start.
Here is a video. Doesn't really capture the noise super-well but you can hear a distinct change around 0:05s in the video - it's pretty loud in person. (need speaker with a bit of bass to pick it up - cannot hear it on my chromebook, but I can hear it on my phone). Video below:
