Cold start sound

Forgive me now if this has been brought up already. Just bought my 1st Acura it's a 2009 TL sh awd waw 90000 mil. Im getting a ticking sound not a knock and not quit a lifter tick it does go faster as I push on the gas and it goes away after about 10min of driving. Can someone please tell me where I should start troubleshooting or is this normal idk. I apologize for my Honda/Acura ignorance. Thanks in advance.

Sounds like timing belt tensioner but will have to wait for video and sound to confirm. Has the timing belt service been completed on the vehicle yet?
