so I have an LFX motor and it basically has the lifter tick. I’ve gone ahead and put Nulon lifter additive and it’s now gone but comes back when the car has gone for a 10 minute drive and nicely warmed up. Car has done 109,000 kms so far, serviced 1000 km ago it drives fine and everything and I can only hear it if I stand near the passenger wheel or have windows down and in a super quiet street.
