Why does my Audi 80 engine make a strange clicking noise when idling?

I just bought an Audi 80 and noticed that whenever I come to a stop and the engine is idling, I can hear a strange clicking noise coming from the engine. It doesn't seem to affect performance, but it's worrying me. What could be causing this and is it something I should be concerned about?

It could be a sign of a faulty valve lifter, also known as a tappet. Have a mechanic check it out to ensure it's not causing any damage to the engine.

It's possible that low oil levels could be causing the clicking noise. Make sure to check your oil levels regularly and top up if necessary.
