Anthro

I don't know what that ticking is, but a trick I often use to narrow these things down is to put a piece of rubber hose to my ear, and then point the other end at various parts of the engine. You would be surprised how much clearer the source of the sound becomes.

Thank you i will try that right now I’m thinking it’s the valve lifters

Sounds like injectors or lifters. What type of oil do put in the car? Have you done a reset on the lifters (I think it run at 2.5k for 30 secs then let idle for 5 mins). Don't quote me on that but it's something like that you can google it.
