A tick tick tick going to idle

After my 2000 xk8 is warmed up I have noticed a "ticking" sound. This occurs when the car is setting at idle and I rev it up. As the car comes back to idle there are 2 to 3 "ticks" then at idle the there is no noise. It sounds like having a sticky hydraulic lifter in say a OHV Chevy V8. The engine runs fine and the noise only occurs when going to idle. I think it is the VVT system resetting. The engine oil is clean but I don't drive the car often. I am using conventional 5-30 oil.
