ticking could be your exhaust manifold gasket blowing. you really need to paperclip it to see what codes are being thrown up tbh. :y

Or you could check for an air intake leak, I'd check all unions .

as said, do a paperclip test to get the fault codes, that'll point you in right direction. as for the erractic idle it maybe worth giving your ICV a good clean
