is it a ticking noise? if so does it seem to come from right under the drivers side door? if so it s probably your fuel pump. mine sounds like a pinhole exaust leak.

I also have a ticking noise that sounds like an exhaust leak. No exhaust leak, valves are good, put in a new lift pump and it still ticks.
