B230FT engine ticking noise when cold...

Sounds like wrist pin noise. Quite common in red turbo motors, because they have more stress put on them. Only way to fix it is a new short block, or overhaul. My car is has the same problem plus the usual piston slap. Wrist pin noise is only a noise, not an omen of impending doom. Most people just live with it. I'm going to be building myself a new motor anyway, for other reasons, but it's nothing more than a noise.
