Default Engine Tick 2010Fx2

I know there is probably tons of threads involving oil but i cant seem to find one for my question.

i got my truck last year its a 4.6L fx2 2010 and changed the oil 3 times using royal purple 5w20 adnit ran beautiful all the time. i changed it today to Mobil 1 5w20 and i find there is a slight ticking sound on my engine. not sure if it will go away or if i should stick with royal.

i switched ebcause i like to do frequent oil changes, and the royal i heard is not worth the money. i dont know if i should go back royal teh next time around or stick with mobil since its so cheap on sale. i just want to keep it synthetic is all

thanks

The Lucas is too thick to use in these overhead cam engines, especially if it has cam phasers, IMO it's hard to beat the Motorcraft syn-blend oil.
