I think almost everyone gets it when it is really cold out. The pt cruser lifters are supposed to correct the problem. Howell aumotive sells them they are like 90 bucks. hope that helped.

Yep, it was like -30 celsius here the last couple of days and my car develops the tick everytime. Goes away once the engine is warm - I think its just due to the metal expanding and shrinking - nothing to worry about, I hope ;)

Yeah lifter tiock is just a part of warm up when it's cold. You can upgrade to the PT/MOpar performance lifters and have better lifters.
