Ticking lifter(s)

[danws69@earthlink.net (Dan S.)]

first off, what weight oil are you using?
second, it's normal to have some tapping at times, does yours do this all
the time or only after it's been running and comes to an idle?

I have an intermittent ticking from one or possibly more lifters in my 16V
scirocco.  I have checked my oil level and it is fine.  Any one know the
prescribed procedure for finding out which one or more it is?  I know what
many lifters ticking sounds like and it seems to be only one or two. Oil
pump dying?  bad lifter? Help me exorcise the demons out my head!
