Mercedes C220 W204 (2007)

Mercedes C220 W204 (2007) clicking sound when the engine is turned off

Hi everyone,
yesterday I started the engine of my Mercedes C220 W204 (2007) without any problems, I passed few kilometres and when the trip ended I switched off the engine.
I noticed very loud clicking sound in the frontal part of the car on switched off engine, see the youtube video.
The clicking sound gone after 10-15 seconds.
I put the key again and turn on position 1 (no any sound), but on position 2 that annoying appeared sound again (the car is still not started).

Watch the video that I made:

Today I put the key in position 2, and there is no clicking sound, everything is normal.

Passed two months I was hearing this sound shortly and periodically only when I was preparing for starting the engine, but yesterday it was pretty loud and longer.

Is it something that I need to be worried, and do you have any experience with problem similar to this?

Regards,
Aleksandar
