Hi Travis
rythmic ticking noise, seems a hydrolic lifter (valve tappet) check the engine oil level and quality, i think you didnt change the engine oil and filter for long time,
Good Luck

Greetings, I read your question and I think Reliable-Store can help you in this. Here's the site link.

If sound comes from under the dash, it might be an hvac actuator that is having a problem? Sometimes you can put your hand on it and feel the vibration? Sometimes with a relay, you can do the same thing.

ignition coil is the problem.

Check the Alternator / Powersteering belts .
One of them will be damaged and loose.
Hope this helps.

Lifters sound like they are bleeding down. Try changing the oil with a multi viscosity oil. chk oil Pressure. If lifters are over adjusted the lifters can't pump up properly or retain the oil properly

how is the oil level and pressure?, how many miles on engine? is this a loud knock or rather a clatter/ticking noise? knock is engine rod or crankshaft bearings, clatter loud ticking is valve follower noise. how long before it (the noise) goes away?
