with that low mileage will assume its a newer model and not a classic
what year is it
ticking noise with low oil most likely the hydraulic tappets
they can be replaced
only older models are old school manual adjusted tappets
any other problems with the caddy
is it being serviced regularly ?
need to check for engine oil leaks or why the oil was low
maybe a oil pump or oil filter check
find another mechanic and get his diagnosis
a cylinder compression test and engine oil pressure test
is done before any engine rebuild would be considered
unless run without engine oil or totally over heated
52 000 miles on any cady motor it is no where near and engine rebuild
the tappets
