i had a pretty mild lifter tick, it wouldn't be ticking, then it would be incredibly loud, then it would be just quiet ticking. well once it started getting cold out the tick has went away. This is interesting because everyone says as it gets cold out the tick gets worse. Well mine has gone completely away. Also, my oil gauge is reading almost all the way to the bottom and this is interesting to because everyone says that the lower your oil level is the louder the tick is. But the thing is i just got my oil chaged about 600 miles ago. i dont think my gauge is broken either because right after i got it changed it was a little bit over the middle mark. so back to my lifter tick. It has been very cold (snow) and my oil gauge says i dont have much oil but yet i have no lifter tick anymore. hmmm

The same thing is happening to me except my guage as always read low. but i got a lifter tick. when i drive it at night it gets louder than when i drive durring the day.

That gauge is oil pressure...not oil level...
