My n55 sounds exactly like this n55 At the 7-8 second mark. It goes away once idle settles.

I don't know if it's the same or not, but the newer injectors, especially direct injectors from what I've read, are quite noisy. I know Ford's injectors are notoriously noisy.

I hear injector noise its just a metallic sounding noise very faint. Doesnt seem to increase with rpm. Goes away when idle smooths. Comment from poster on a video had same noise bmw claimed its perfectly normal but from what I hear they say that a lot.

I believe its a normal part of the cold start warm up. Especially if it goes away all at once when the car is warmed up. I can't remember, but thought it was fuel related.

I tried watching more videos never a truthful answer I mean im not crazy worried about it since it goes away and not rpm related. Appreciate feedback was just curious I came from n52 so this engine im still learning haha.
