could be your lifters. check your oil. you might have to just clean your engine out good. mine did that when I first got my car. buddy before me didn't use synthetic oil and I'm not sure he was very regular with the oil changes all together. the oil was super dirty. so I just got it flushed, put some good oil in, and it's slowly getting better.

If your oil light came on today I would go check the oil in the pan right now. The oil light is a pressure sensor, if it comes on it means you have low oil pressure, not really a good thing (although I've had it blink at me a couple times idling at about 800 in traffic, but it goes away if I bring it up to 900 or so). The combination of your oil light coming on and the ticking, which can be caused, or at least exaggerated by low oil pressure, I would make sure it's full to begin with. And also if you're not sure, change your oil and filter.

yeah it comes on for a split second at idle and then disseapers so you suggest that i change the oil or put oil in also i have a oil pressure gauge but the thing is i heard in need an adapter and i dont know where to hook it up at
