I need details before I can give any opinion.

Year Truck, I know it is 15+, but what year?

What are your current miles?

The EB’s are known for ticking. It is pretty common when cold and is due to Direct Injection.

A video/audio recording of the sound would be GREAT.

Sounds like there are many maintenance issues that need to or have recently been resolved most of your issues could be caused by many combo’s of the issues you mentioned, like dirty air filter, low voltage in the battery...and others.

Yeah, I have heard this on a couple of the 3.5TT first gens.

I have a good friend with a 16 XLT Expy, and his sounds exactly like that when cold. Hasn’t gotten worse since it started, about 30K ago. He bought it with 20K+, and now has over 50K. Several dealers have looked at it, with no solution.

Once it warms up, sound goes away.
