Keep an eye on the ticks... probably no biggie. Do they change sound when the engine is hot or cold? Depend on the weather? Are you using the same fuel? What rpms? do they go away @ higher rpm?

Clucth fluid is normal, they all turn dark. No need to flush. I did mine after 2 years when I swapped out for galfer clutch lines.
