Hydro boost question

My 2019 dually only has 1700 miles and it’s done it since new, so I assume it’s normal but wanted to run it by you all. On cold mornings or cold starts I am getting a slight noise from the steering column. If I turn the wheel just barely the noise either changes tone just a bit or stops all together. Pushing brake pedal has similar results. I came to ford from dodge and LOVINg this truck !! My dodge developed a similar noise at 40k miles. They replaced one of the hydro boost lines that had a defective valve In it. Truck drives , steers, and stops perfectly. Most people driving my truck would never even know it was making a noise but I tend to look for things. Bad habit. lol. Once engine is warmed up usually quiet as a mouse. Thanks !

When below freezing I get a similar sound when cold, I only notice when straightening out after backing out. I haven’t worried about it at all.

Not normal.check fluid level.if it is full and still makes noise take it in. Check another truck on your dealers lot. (You are SURE your truck has hydroboost- some models do not - I can’t remember which)
