PMSL :lol:

At school [ a loooooooong time ago, in a galaxy far far away - so it seems] my TD teacher when complaining about classroom noise used to say, "shut up! you lot!, you're making more rattle than a galvanised bucket full of death watch beetles" Teachers don't come like that anymore


Still not helping with the post am I?

what kind of ticking ?

if your hearing is very good and you get easily bothered by little rattles and stuff could be a number of things . does it go in synch with the engine revs on tickover with fan switched off ?



maybe your mechanic dropped his watch in there on your last service ?

Check the relays under the steering column, sounds very much like that. Take about two minutes to remove panel. You will require torx screw and 10mm spanner/socket
