My van started making a ticking noise:

Does this sound like lifter tap to anyone? Or might it be something else?

Thanks in advance.

Did you ever identify this sound?

Just bought a 1999 eurovan camper and on the second time driving it it's started making a very similar sound.

From reading around it sounds like lifter / cam followers noise and could potentially be ignored for a while after an oil change but I'm not really a mechanic and this is my first eurovan.

Anyone got any suggestions?
