Did you find a clock stuck in the filter? :D

Seriously though, how would that fix the ticking? Did you do an oil change as well?
 
I dunno, it didn't seem very clogged up but I did change for the old Castrol 10w-60 (from Motul 10w-60).
Maybe all psychological! :)
 
Hej Argenta!
Well it might be what your indy diagnosed, the water pump.
A failing bearing for the water pump or the other tensioners and pullies along the serpentine belt, can make all kind of rattling and knocking sounds that may come and go.
Here are some examples:

Ah, well if you changed oil it's quite possible that something that was a bit sticky/under-lubricated freed up (although you'll probably never know what it was). Glad it's sorted, either way. :thumbsup:
