New to Jag! I love my xf, but has a small tick I believe, can anyone tell me if my engine sounds healthy or what could possibly be the issue. Video is down below

Does the noise settle once the car is warmed up or is that a video once warm.

Not personally got a diesel now on the xf petrol side, but my diesel XE was noisy when the bonnet was up and was fine.

A number on here have the same engine so can probably give some advice.

Thanks so much for reaching back. Happens on cold starts too. This is a video of how it sounds already warmed up. Tick accelerates with engine when driving, not bad but enough to hear it with the radio is off. My engine is not diesel. It is the 5.0 premium. I goes away sometimes, but for the most part it always sounds like that.

That sounds like injector noise..? 
I have a similar noise on a completely different petrol engine, did wonder about it but it seems it’s absolutely fine and normal. 
Yours may be similar - I hope so.
Hopefully a more knowledgeable member who has a similar engine to yours will be along shortly…
