Hey everyone,

My car has started making this awful ticking noise. At first I thought it might be oil related, but I had that changed a few days ago so I feel like that's ruled out.

I've noticed that it ticks every 14 or 15 seconds and only at RPMs of about 2000 or higher. It does this regardless of whether I am driving or if I'm just revving in neutral.

Any thoughts on what this might be?
