Car making noises
I have an 87 iroc 305 tpi stock engine A4 trans. no aftermarket performance parts. all stock. When i crank the car it makes a ticking noise but stops after its had time to warm up. i was low on oil and needed a change, so i got it change (prolly should've done it myself but got it cheaper at shop) iit stopped for a bit then started back up again. anybody know what it might be? Maybe they didnt use 5w-30 or just crappy oil, or is it a bigger problem?

The Hose Knows
A friend of mind was driving around for who knows how long with so little oil it didn’t show on the dip stick, and his engine is fine so no need to panic.
Your noise might be a loose exhaust, etcetera.
You can use a rubber hose and funnel as a stethoscope.
Make sure you stay away from moving parts.
That will help locate the source of the noise.

If People Drove Any Slower They’d Be Going Backwards
When you see fog or “running” lights on in good weather beware. Low performance driver ahead.
How bout those nitwits too scared to drive without headlights in the daytime
and the nitwits that need headlights for a little rain
