Arrow Weird Ticking Noise......

i have this weird ticking /flapping noise coming from either somewhere in the back of the engine or my rotor when i drive. it almost sounds like youre putting a piece of paper in front of fan. the rotors look good though. only 42k on car....any ideas

Have you put headers on or messed with the ones you already have? If not that noise could be anything dude, try to give a little more info to narrow the possible problems. Off hand could be a leak, or could be rattling heat sheild?

it sounds more like a zip tie is hitting the wheel or something and sometimes it sounds like the brake pad is touching the rotor

Bringing back an old thread. Ive had the same thing ever since I put on LTs. Mine makes the noise under acceleration after ~1200 rpm and increases in volume and speed as the engine does. Ive been over my exhaust numerous times and have fixed a few leaks, but this sounds like its coming from right in front of the firewall on the drivers side.
