Message What is your service schedule on oil and filter?
How many miles on car?
How many miles you drive between oil changes?

Lifter tick most likely due to restriction in the lifter oil passage and not being able to hold oil at shut down. This could be related to a defective (or poor design) oil filter anti drain back valve. This is typical of Fram filters and some others. I use the basic Purolater filter (not their more expensive and more restrictive filter) and never have lifter tick issues.
