I have a VZ R8 clubby with the LS2 engine. From the engine bay behind the steering wheel somewhere comes a ticking noise. It is audible at idle and increases in frequency with revs, until at say 3000 rpm the noise is lost in all the other engine/exhaust noise. The ticking is not that loud, but is audible enough to be annoying. Previously the car had extractors and a 3" exhaust and this tick was much louder, suggesting its' coming from the area near the exhaust valves (?). I would appreciate opinions on whether this is normal or what it could be and if I should get it looked at. Car is under warranty for another 27 days which I why I wuold like to get it resolved ASAP. Thanks.
