Default Ticking noise?

Whenever I start my car I hear a ticking noise coming from my engine. I heard this sound during the winter months when it was cold outside, but now it's the middle of June when it's mildly warm outside. What is the ticking noise? How can I fix it?

Okay? Is this bad? Can it cause any major problems?

If you have an aftermarket exhaust manifold..It could be a crack in the manifold..even a hairline crack can cause a noise.

Check it out and get back with us.

No, I have a stock header. The only engine mod I have, is SR intake and full cat exhaust. No cracks. I changed my oil, about 3 days ago, so I know the oil is good.

check your oil level. I may be stating something obvious that you already checked but its hard to go off of someone describing words
