I think you may have a similar problem as mine:

I have not been able to solve the problem yet.... :(... I am still investigating. Three Mechanic + one silencer specialist also have not been able to make the problem occurred in a control situation (e.g. when they were driving the car and making it intentionally make the sound)....my last mechanic told me to let it deteriorate a bit in order to detect it better (since the sound will become louder). Apparently he hints that it might be the Timing chain belt tensioner which is making this tick...

my engine is 1KR-FE but with no VTI.. so strangely I do get this tik tick sound when accelerating.
Apparently I think it might be bearing related - I am still investigating.

I use 5W40 oil semi synthetic.

Let's keep in touch whenever either of us solve this problem.
