I think I'm getting confused between the "chirping" and the "cricket" and "ticking" noises or vocabulary used to describe them.
Sounds like there are 2 different sounds going on one possibly "normal" while the high pitched "chirping" isn't. And the videos posted some complain about one or the other. I'm almost confused how to tell them apart and if it does requiring opening the hood to really listen to hear which is happening.

I ask because ive only really heard "regular" (so i think) engine noise, until one time i filled up at the pump and then started the car to hear a fairly audible noise from the driver seat, (same "ticking" sound described in the videos,not sure about the high pitched chirp) at low RPMS After that ive just been weary and attentive about the noise. and following these idle noise threads. It has never gone that audible to me since, but there are times that i would hear it a bit, but only if im outside near the hood. or have my head stuck out trying to listen. (and only hearing the "ticking") I guess it should be worth taking a video / sound recording with the hood open and just compare to all the other videos posted. lol

I hear it on mine.
I also noticed that while idling, my belt tensioner flaps around excessively.... |

The high pitched cricket noise / chirps is the problem noise. |
