QV ticking sound cold start

Yup. Anything different? Perhaps colder outside or warmer? I've noticed it's always there but depending on temperature and how aware you are, it's louder. If you don't hear excessive knocking coming out of the engine, you're fine. Knocking is fairly normal on cold starts but should go away in under 60sec. I believe '20+ QV have a change to eliminate this issue.
