Two easy things to check to determine the issue:
1. Low on motor oil
2. Using the incorrect oil weight. It has to use the factory recommended weight or it will tick.
A lot of people love eating up the shit they read online so they start pouring fancy motor oils like German Castrol (0W30) into their cars only to realize it either burns too quickly (too thin) or some kind of Redline cocktail and it causes lifter tick.
