Is it normal for my Audi 80 to make a loud ticking noise?

I recently noticed that my Audi 80 has been making a loud ticking noise when I start the engine. It eventually goes away after a few minutes of driving. Is this something I should be concerned about?

It's normal for Audis to make ticking noises when starting up. It's usually just the engine valves adjusting. But if the noise persists or gets worse, it's best to have it checked by a mechanic to be safe.

It could be a sign of a engine issue, like a loose valve or a faulty oil pump. I would recommend taking it to a trusted mechanic for a diagnostic check.
