I can hear it from the driver seat with my window open....
SO now we are to accept engine noises, expensive repairs under 150K on 60K vehicles.
I'll keep my town cars or my 03-04 Navigator. So quiet you can forget they are running. The way a luxury or any car for that matter should be.
Regularly 250K and never a valve cover off.
I specifically stayed 03 or 04 to NOT have 3v and not 06 to stay away from the 6 sp trans.

I also noticed this noise shortly after purchasing my 2017. Much like you I researched it and discovered it’s normal. It’s frequently blamed on the direct injection fuel pump.
My vehicle has been at the dealer for repairs a lot. I ended up switching dealers because the first one always seemed to hand me back my vehicle with a new problem. When I arrived at the second dealer I explained all the trouble I had been having and asked them to fix a number of things along with general direction to fix anything else it needs because, let’s be honest, I’m not a Ford mechanic and never will be so they ought to know best. Anyway, long story short, a number of repairs were made, including a driver side turbo, but this clicking was never mentioned by them as being a problem. It’s been back since for oil changes and a couple other non-powertrain things and it still hasn’t come up.
I should mention that I understand many people don’t trust the dealer or any shop for that matter, my self included, but this is one of two shops that have earned my trust. The other is a Toyota shop my family has used for the Toyota vehicles we’ve owned. The point of all this is to say that I trust if this was an issue that my ford dealer would have dealt with it.
Hope that makes you feel better!

Like I said, HPFP pumps at almost 2200 psi. Youre going to hear that.. but unfortunately there are some ppl that think if it’s louder than a hybrid, there’s something wrong with it
I posted a video of that a few posts up. Cam phasers are heard directly after startup and is a rattle or chatter. All the OP is hearing is the HPFP, totally normal

My 17 Camaro SS does that but maybe not as pronounced. In my case it’s the DFI causing the noise but my Expy runs a lot quieter but only have 3k miles on it. I’m sure it will be louder as time goes by.
