Weird noise, and it's not the usual squeak
Let me describe the symptoms first.

The sound I'm talking about is sort of like a ticking sound but with a deeper tone to it and it comes from the engine bay(seems like it)

If the car is parked, in neutral, no ticking no worries
If the car is in neutral, I rev the engine, no ticking no worries
If the car is in gear and load is applied, tick tick tick tick tick tick
If I'm going 20 mph down the street, tick tick tick tick tick tick
If I'm going 20 mph down the street and push the clutch in, no ticking no worries...

Anyone has a clue?

I have a similar tick as well, I need to get my oil changed though so that might be it. Could be the TOB as well.

TOB, or just flush the fluids and see if that helps...

TOB shouldn't be that expensive, I don't think they have to take apart the whole clutch to do it.

Change the fluids first. After that, if it doesnt fix it, find out where its coming from, head, block, tranny, etc

Sounds like the TOB is going out quickly.

At this point I guess I may as well change both the Tob and the clutch? How much is that going to cost me?

I got my clutch and TOB from WORKS, and I think it was like 400-500$ total (don't remember exactly. Install was only 300$ CAD since I know the mechanic.
