Hearing this ticking noise that’s in the video, this is a cold start and had it idling for like 10 minutes before I started to drive.
It’s a 2016 EX, 2.0L

Just sounds like injectors to me. Doesn't sound abnormal for a direct injection engine.

He actually doesn't have direct injection.

Oh, I guess it's 2017 and up.. Oh well. It still sounds normal nonetheless.

No, he has a base non-turbo port injection engine. No years are DI. But yes, sounds fine to me as well.

+1 My 2018 2.0 sounds identical. My RSX sounded the same as well.
