C55 just starting to tick... need help

hi everyone,


I've owned the car for about 8 months, in the past week my car has started to tick, the sound seems to be coming under the hold, i am pretty stupid when it comes to doing mechanical work im sad to say and i need advice because its starting to worry me. Mercedes changed my oil about 3 months ago and informed me my car had a slight oil leak, my instrument cluster always says check oil level on flat surface, but its said that even the day after they changed my oil, so long story short... i don't trust my gauge. I put about a half quart of oil in it, and in about 10 minutes the sound went away. When i started my car this morning the tick was back, the sound does speed up when the engine is revved, i would just take the car to the dealership but money is tight for me, and won't be an option for some time. I need the wisdom of the people on the fourm! you guys seem to know everything, i would much appreciate the advice!
