On you thread http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/t76667.html you asked a similar question. The answer is consistent with what you're asking now. The engine oile is cold when the ambient temprature is cold (obviously) and the same at night its colder in the day. Oil doesn't flow as well when its cold as it does when its warm, it amplifies that "ticking" behavior.
