John and Stephen:
Thanks for the advice, but if the oil is clogged, why does the sound go away intermittently and/or when I top 1,500 rpm? Maybe partially clogged and once the rpm's rise, the oil pressure does too in a linear fashion?
Is this a diy job that may require some cleaning or is it worth letting the dealer look at it? My mechanic said the cold start ticking had something to do with letting oul seep into the lifter so I think you two just implicitly agreed with each other. I believe this ticking to be fairly common and I believe I use 0w 40 mobil 1. I know it's full synthetic. Do you think a thinner oil would help? I am just a bit apprehensive about using too thin of oil in a 200k motor. At any rate, I appreciate the help.
