Is it a metallic tick or an actual THUNK ?

well ok, if you are having a clicking noise, and its near the firewall but sounds like its coming from the bottom side of the car, check that cuffin engine mount. Mine busted and when I took it out and looked its kinda crappily made where if any of the bolts get loose and you torque the engine kinda hard the mount isnt thick enough and snaps, then on idle, it sits there and cuffin rattles. I fixed that by getting some thick ass steal and welding it on there rather then getting a new mount since the rest of the mounts and ish were fine. Another clucking/knocking noise I got was when I was low on oil and the lifters started knocking, atleast thats what I think it was, it was fuckin loud so I checked my oil and it didnt show on the dipstick. Added oil, ran it for a minute, added another quart, ran it for a minute, knocking gone. Those are the two things I've had knocking.
