    I had this problem aswell, and it was an easy fix, but do forgive me, im quite car illiterate.

    I needed to tighten the nuts that held the exhaust onto the motor, they only needed to be done a fraction but that stopped the ticking. Also make sure you havnt started your car many hours prior.

    if its coming from the exhaust manifold you will most likely need a new gasket on it.
