I have a 2001 mitsubishi Mirage with a 1.5 engine. It also has 120000 miles. It makes a ticking noise when I first start it up. This goes on until I get up to 50mph. The oil has always been changed on a regular basis. What could this be?

If noise is heard only on cold starts and gets less as car warms up it sounds like hyd lifters needs replacement.
