First and foremost, did you check oil level?

Hmm, ticking noise ......

My '00 S2000 doesn't do that. You must have one of those fancy 2001 models with the clock!!!

Does the ticking vary with engine RPM? Ticking + Engine light = trouble. My Stook ticked, or tapped, when I lost the engine due to the infamous cylinder #4 issue.

Take it to the dealer ASAP.
