What is causing a ticking noise in a 1988 Toyota Camry and what needs to be done to fix it?
Try to locate the ticking noise. Is it the engine? Is it ticking when you are driving? When you are sitting still? It could be as simple as a stone stuck in yoru tire, everytime it hits the road it ticks. it could be a lifter in the engine. Try to be more specific as to where and when the ticking happens.

Why would a 1997 Dodge Caravan engine make a tapping-ticking noise that went away after warming up but now is constant and seems to come from the top of the engine?
The 3.0L engine had a problem with the lifters that would cause the top end to tick. There is a TSB i believe on how to fix it. If the ticking is coming from the bottom of the engine (sometimes hard to tell) then you might have a Con-Rod knock that starting to show. Eitherway take it to a mechanic for diagnoses.
1994 Plymouth voyager makes a ticking noise from the time it starts until you turn it off What is the problem and how can you fix it?
The ticking noise could be worn out rocker arms under valve covers. Switch to heavier weight oil if ticking noise subsides that could be your problem. This is usually a sign of a high mileage engine. Worst case scenario would be weak oil pump not getting oil to top of heads.
How do you fix a 1995 Mazda 626 that has recently had an oil changed and the clicking sound is still present?
The ticking may be due to any of a number of things, including worn lifters or noisy injectors. Is the ticking louder after the engine warms up? This would point to noisy lifters, since the oil thins slightly as it heats up. Have a reputable mechanic determine where the noise is coming from and whether or not it's anything to worry about.
