Re: wth is that ticking!
lifter tick only gets louder if your oil level drops. And if your oil level does drop, you have to worry about spun bearings. a spun bearing can sound alot like lifter tick in its early stages. Hope it is just the lifters in your case. Change the oil, and make sure it is filled all the way up to the full indicator and then let it warm up before checking again. If still getting ticking noises, you'll have to determine if the ticking is lifter generated, exhaust generated, or lower end generated. When it sounds like a a hammer on metal, it isn't the lifters anymore dorothy.... it is the path to hell.
