This ticking sound from the valves can continue for very long time if you use an thick oil grade
Try changing it to 10W40 or even 5W40 since the engine should be pretty young and the tolerances very narrow. Oil is too thick to support the hydraulic valve lifters.

Bearingsounds are less when cold and harder when thick overall.
