Could be the vacuum pump. They will develop a tick as they are  getting bad.

As stated vacuum pump but that is easy to check. then I would pull the valve covers and look over everything. But also do it only do this in v4? What is your oil pressure? 

If it is you HPFP I would think about looking into that ASAP. there has been fires. All of this can be checked in the software.

After dealer gave me there last line of bs I would take it home and strip it down and find out whats up.

Couldn't view the video. What year, engine and mileage?

I think we both had our trucks fixed around the same time a few months ago? 

I just noticed 2 days ago on cold start its knocking again although not as loud.  Its also seeming to come from the other side now.   Ugh...

If it sounds like your blinker is on, it's the vacuum pump.  My truck only has 600 miles on it and it's been like this from day one.  I finally go in on Saturday for them to officially diagnose the sound.  Here is a video of mine.  It's the metallic/intermittent sound that sounds like the blinker is on.

Sewing machine sound are the injectors.  Do a search.  Plenty of people complain about the sewing machine sound.  It's normal with DI engine.

before they "Replaced" the left side lifters the noise would start just after cold start after idles down.  it would go away after warmed up.  after the did the work it was fine for a couple days and then the same noise started.  Now the noise is just after the engine turns over and almost goes away after warm up.  to me it sounds like its coming from the front left side of engine.  Gonna borrow a Stethoscope from work and **** with it.

Mine sounds the same as the video. It goes away after warming up. Currently at 5k miles, noticed it around 1k.

      2 speed transfer case optional now?

      By newdude · Posted

      This is a 1/2 ton thing ONLY.  All HDs 2020-2026 have the two speed transfer case, with Autotrac as an option.     1/2 tons 2019-2026, regular 4x4s come with a single speed case (no 4LO!), and trucks with Z71 ordered, or all Trail Boss trucks come with the 2 speed case.  2 speed case is also an option on WT, and is also standard on High Country.

      Different requirements for oil filters?

      By newdude · Posted

      2013 5.3 still to this day calls for the PF48 filter.  Which as a 15psi bypass pressure.     There is a TSB, 17-NA-157 that talks about the PF-63 and PF-64 filters which have a higher bypass rating of 22psi.    TSB HERE - temp.xml   "Beginning in 2012, the oil pumps began to regulate main gallery feedback instead of pump out pressure. This means that the oil pump now does not begin to regulate until pressure is built up to the main gallery. This change reduces the amount of time it takes to provide oil to the engine bearing and lifters during extreme cold start conditions.  Main gallery feedback oil pump control systems are present on the following engine families which use Spin-on oil filters: Small Gas Engine (SGE), Large Gas Engine (LGE), High Feature (HFV6) Gen2 and Small Block Gen5 gasoline engines. These engines with the main gallery feedback oil pump control systems are factory built with an ACDelco® oil filters"   It also calls out what engines use those filters.  The gen 4 small blocks were not on that list (LMG, LC9, L9H, L92, L94, L20, L96).  Gen 5 small blocks use the higher pressure filter.          That all said...   Your 7045 Napa filter is the PF63 equivalent, with 22psi bypass.  You are already using the higher bypass pressure filter.  You CAN keep using it, you don't technically have to use it though.

      Do you know WHY the filter relief setting was increased to 22 psig?    When the new system goes into the second stage the pump volume ramps up considerably. It was found that the 15 psi filter bypass setting put the filter in bypass on a warm engine when the second stage was activated. Raising the filter bypass setting forced the filter to do what it designed to do. Filter. Preventing debris from circulating during high load, high rpm operation.    So next question is how did GM find this out? VLOM/lifter failures and a deep dive by Melling Corp.    Last question. Is it required? Look at it like this; a motor may be equipped with a rev limiter. But it only works if the set point in reached. That 22 psig setting only matters if the pressure differential across the filter media exceeds 15 psig during normal warm operation. Second stage kicks in around 3000-3500 rpm.    I can't answer your question because I don't know you and how you use the truck. But I think there is enough information here to let you decide for yourself. 😉

      2020 Trailboss 6.2 replacement

      By newdude · Posted

      Probably not their first rodeo, so it should go as planned most likely.  Typically the service manager or tech doing the swap will put some seat time to shake it down after they get it all put back together.  We usually put 50-100mi before we hand them back so if something happens, its not after you get it.  A coolant leaks, oil leaks, a ground left off or loose, vibration, etc.     The new engines so far have been good?  There's been a couple that have popped out there again (the replacement engine) but most have been okay.
