yeah after a car gets up there in miles most should use 10w30. I think you answered the ticking question urself, blown exhaust gaskets will give you that ticking sound when you give it throttle. I’ve blown a few header gaskets in my GS and they all gave me that sound. If you really wanna diagnose a sound go around your engine with a tube(paper towl roll or longer) and put it up to your ear and try to isolate it. ---
