Hi all.

I have a 2007 focus 1.6 petrol, latlely when I start it up, it makes a ticking noise when I accelerate but when the engine heats up it goes away. Any ideas what this could be?

Any help is aprechiated.

Thanks!

    Probably tappets.I wouldn't be too concerned about it.Some. add an engine additive and swear by it at oil changes.Never used it myself so I can't recommend it.

    I was thinking myself it might be an exhaust leak or something.
