Engine ticking noise S70 1998

Need some advice here. I have a 98 GLT w/ 106K miles on the odo. I have had a ticking noise (sounds like a lifter possibly) that only happens 1)when I am driving at low speeds less than 20MPH. 2) sitting at stop light etc. It doesn't do it when I first start the car only when it is at operating temp. I change the oil every 2500 - 3000 miles deligently. The motor only burns about a half quart between oil changes. My independant volvo mechanic has basically said don't worry. The only suggestion to fix the obvious problem was to burn some trans fluid because it has detergent.

Please provide your comments or suggestions.

Thanks
