I had a ticking noise from my 940 1993 turbo. Was less intense when hot initially and over a period of months became more pronounced. There was a slight leak at the exhaust manifold #1 cylinder. It was real pain to repair but I did mine a couple of months ago. The FAQs have a lot of good information on this and a few searches uncovered additional good information. From my experience, in addition to the faqs;

the manifold nuts needed a 1/2" socket; you will need all sorts of extensions and sizes; one or two of the nuts were only accessible using 1/4 drive attachments. Start using release fluid for at least a week before you start the job and apply it on a daily basis.

It will be much easier to remove the oil filter adapter , but you need sockets of a size that I did not have. 29mm deep and 32 mm I believe. I did the work without removing the adapter but it was difficult and my knuckles did not thank me for it.
