Ticking sound in the engine compartment
Anytime the car is on I hear a ticking noise to the left of the engine. it sounds like its coming from the engine itself.
Anyone having this problem? Its not really bothering me much because u can't hear it unless you open the hood. But just want to make sure there is no problem. I took video of it but you can't hear it because engine is louder.

Normal for this engine. It is just the direct injection fuel system working.

I think you are hearing the injectors firing. This is a common issue on the V-6. Do a search on "injector issues" in the V-6 section and you'll find a lot of posts.

They are set up to run very aggressive on this car compared to the CTS (which has the same engine).

I've heard a ticking noise from my D.I.C. only audible from inside the vehicle. Is this something I should worry about?

No worries, unless you're all snuggled up inside the vehicle and you're hearing a tick from under the closed hood and suddenly realize its actually your D.I.C.. This may explain your handle......................
