Question 2017 GT ticking noise

My new 2017 GT is making a ticking noise. It’s louder when the engine is warm. I’ve read that the older models did this and that it could be the lifters or an exhaust leak. I am going to bring it back to the dealer. I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem with the new GT’s and if so what was the cause?

Ticking?

Might be easier to comment on if you posted an audio file or a youtube link.

Anyone who still has this (typewriter tick), on a 5.0 next oil change add only 7L of engine oil & 2 x 300ml of Ceratec = 7.6L total. Can almost guarantee the 'tick' will have gone within 5,000kms of driving if not sooner.
