Well i had my dad's mechanic friend come over and take a look at the 'ticking' noise that i've been experienceing for about 3 weeks now. He said it is comming from within the engine, inside one of the cylinders. I forgot the term he used but he said that the i could keep using the car until i either get a new engine or get it fixed... what could it be???? thanks.
Is it a loud tick? Could it just be Injector tick?

GUYS!! The my dad's mechanic friend said it was a lifter.. SHADLY was right. Now, he said i would have to take the car in to get the block dismantles, do you guys have any idea how much this would cost me (the guy works for a mechanic so he couldnt give me a price). THANK YOU !

Pull the valve covers and wiggle them with your hand. You will have to turn the engine by hand to get to all of them. You have hydraulic lifters so you should have NO GAP at all. If you find gap, Tighten the nut on top of the rocker until you get 0 lash, then another 1/4 turn.
If it's a flat lifter, adjusting the valves won't really help the situation. You'll need new lifters.
