Greetings!
At 188k miles, your probably looking at a lifter, but
take Mike's advice and do a flush and replace with pure synthetic.
The ticking can sometimes be caused by going from a petroleum based,
to semi-synthetic, or from semi to pure synthetic without flushing the
system first.
Also, be sure your gas octane rating is at least 92 during
colder temps (I use 94, but not sure if it's available in the States -
Sunoco Ultra 94).
Merry Christmas!
Armie
