Hey guys' I was idling today and heard some noise ticking in my engine.. So I decided to see if anyone knew what it was. Anyways here's some details, it happens when the car is idling and also when the car is under low rpms .. when it gets into the higher rpms it disappears then it reappears as the idle gets low again.. heres a link to a website I made to post my clip on .. just click on the link that says Engine Ticking if it doesn't work let me know and I'll email you the clip.. thanks!

Changed my oil today .. what a mess that shit was my god... I put in some fully synthetic 10w-30 mobil 1 and I upgraded my oil filter from the small one to the 1g larger one.. ticking is gone :) haha so far so good!!!!!!! thanks guys
 
The ticking if it gets louder is that bad? My oil is good and it was changed 1300miles ago.
 
mine is ticking at idle, when I got the car I poured in some valve and lifter cleaner and the noise stopped for a week, but while idling the thing started ticking again and it just won't stop high or low rpm. I am going to upgrade to 3G ones I cannot take that noise.
