I originally posted on Reddit thinking type writer sound. Getting a little worried.

2018 GT 5.0 PP1 purchased with 6k miles in 2019.

currently 18k miles on summer driven only.

always used Pennzoil ultra platinum / platinum 5w20 full synthetic.

changed oil and filter, levels good, video recorded after a 10 mile drive, noticed the sound as I was pulling into the garage / about to shut off vehicle.

Really appreciate the reply! Not going to lie I started going down the rabbit hole and getting nervous. Don’t think I ever noticed it before.

sounds very mechanical as it should. try a little ceratec and verify the oil you have in there is correct. Other than that nothing to worry about IMO.

Everything is fine. Sounds like a coyote.

You will learn to appreciate the coyote typewriter tick. 🤣 We are all sick of this sound but it is how the engine sounds.

Tick Tick Tick Tick Tick Tick Tick Tick Tick Tick Tick Tick Tick Tick Tick Tick Tick Tick Tick Tick Tick

My advise: stop idling and get out there and floor it!

The car is throwing codes but in Morse code. Figure out what it’s telling you and fix it!
