There is a standard clicking (or ticking as the TSB says) noise that the engine makes that is very normal. And the paperwork for the TSB is on the first page of this thread.

To your second point, I didnt bother with a break in period on mine, went above 3500 rpms, and havent had any problems with it (knock on wood). Not saying that everyone should or shouldnt do that, but I couldnt help it and didnt really feel it was necessary. Not that I floored it every time, but i certainly did a few times just because racecar.
So if you were me would you bring it back to the dealer for the cricket fix? or should i wait a little till it gets really resolved?

I dont want my car to get hurt im pretty sure its cricket sound. sounds like exactly like crickets chirping under the hood on the driver side by the intake manifold im pretty sure thats where the HPFP is yes?

I will call them if you think i should bring it in right away.
