yeah. does the clicking sound like it could be coming from the head? if so, check your oil. if the oil is low and you add some and the clicking in the head doesnt go away, youve got bigger problems

thats not bad thinking, but it only happens when the heater, as in the heater that warms the car up is on. i think its something to do with the blower motor. also, checked it out, it happens when the ac is on also
