Some web sites say Titan's tide locked. If it's tidelocked, the tidal

Yes, but it will vary in size and position if Titan has an eccentric orbit around Saturn. To get a large eccentricity there would have to be another large moon. So Titan must have a low (but non zero) eccentricity and a small (but non zero) variation in the tide forom Saturn.

We know Titan has wind. There must be an energy input from somewhere.
