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.

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.
