Tapping noise after oil change

[18_GT5oh]

So I just did an oil change on my 18 GT I put the usual motorcraft oil and filter 10quarts and there’s is a tapping noise coming from the front of the engine I’m not sure where the tapping is coming from it doesn’t sound internal it sounds like a plastic or something cracking when idling oil level is good car runs amazing no codes it’s just that noise that’s worrying me I want to take it to the dealership it’s still under 3-36k warranty but has a Intake and catback NO TUNE though

It's the BBQ tick. Usually starts after an oil change, but Ford deemed it normal. My 2016 GT was embarrassing to drive to a car show with the tick. It got so bad that even my gf asked what that noise was... You'll find lots of posts around here about the tick/knock.

People have had good luck with ceratec oil additive to quiet the tick down.
