Thanks for the replies, Klaus and Oleseahorse.

Just to be clear, the ticking noise doesn't always happen at start up. It sometimes happens when the engine is idling in a parking lot or a few minutes after start up or while driving at slow speeds. The noise would last from 30 seconds to a couple of minutes.

Maybe I should switch back to regular oil on my next LOF change? For over a decade I always used regular oil and only switched to synthetic in 2011 when we moved to Texas.
