Ticking noise underneath the car approximately midway.

have you recharged battery ? and are there any codes coming up on OBD ? possible it's a power relay (ticking),when you open door your lowering power needed for interior lights .

it my have a bad lob on the camshaft worn out....or lose bolt...good time to check things out by replacing your valve cover gasket....hope this helps you????

I think what happened was the cv joint got pulled out of the slot. go underneath the car the push it back in.

Low battery warning is built into your alarm. have your battery checked at local parts store such as autozone. The ticking means that you have too low voltage to start vehicle.

A ticking noise from the engine may be caused by low motor oil level in the engine. You can check the oil yourself or have an oil change shop such as Jiffy Lube look at it for you. If you check it, check with the engine off. If it is low (see owners manual for how to read the dipstick) then add 1/2 quart at a time until a 'full' reading is obtained. It is very important not to overfill the engine oil as this can cause damage to the engine.

Good Luck,

open the hood and check the sight glass for bubbles with the ac on if there are non then you probably have a hole in the ac system as for the ticking noise it could be something stuck in the blower motor or a bad bearing

It is probably your lifters sticking. Check your engine oil level and if thats fine, then add some oil detergent/additive that says it will "reduce engine knock and free sticky lifters" run with that additive for a couple hundred miles or until the noise gets better. then replce your oil after that without using the additive

there are no adjustments that you can do. a dealer or someone that specializes in toyota is the only ones that can/should do an adj for you. If that really is the case.

depending on what engine, you may have adjustible lifters. aIf it doesn't you may have a lifter bleeding down. you may want to try a bottle of lucas additive your next oil chang.

Possibly a leaking hydraulic lifter. They can leak down while engine isn't running and then make a ticking noise for a while on startup. If it takes 10-15 minutes to go away, it is more likely to be a loose tappet which needs adjusting.
