"Hiccup start" help

Okay guys recently Ive noticed my truck makes what I describe it as a "hiccup" hesitation at start-up. It never happens in the summer but it does it quite often now even when the engine is warm! And the average temp right now is -5C. I didnt have this problem last winter when it was crazy cold!

My injectors are good too I replaced them last year and that resolved my hard starting issue i had back in the day! I also have a fass and put in a new fca. Some fellas say its normal but i dont think it should make this sound after the engine is already warm. It sounds like its progressively getting worse.

P.S No codes!

Heres a clip!

Mine occasionally does the same thing, it has done it pretty much since day one. I don't worry about it, I check the oil religiously at every fill up. I guess as long as nothing changes in the way it runs and I don't find the engine "making oil" until I have a reason to worry I will just live with it.

Nah man I dont notice it anymore. It starts perfectly in -30c without any noise so I'm pretty happy with it!
