Odd ticking noise? (video included)

Afternoon,

I've recently picked up a new 2016 C220 AMG Line Saloon Auto and I've come across an odd ticking noise that repeats approximately every 3-5 seconds. The ticking noise only occurs once the car has been driven and warmed up. I've witnessed the noise when the revs are at idle.

It appears to be coming from underneath the car.

I've got a video of the noise:
(turn up your speakers)

Is this normal or does it need to be booked in at the dealership?

Thanks,

Conor

I've got an annoying ticking noise but only when the car is cold. As I'm slowing down coming to a stop sign, the faster and louder the ticking gets. Once the car has been running for a few minutes it goes away.

Wondering if it is fuel system related eg a fuel pressure regulator valve...


Not having the diesel the best advice i can siggest is to get it to the dealer, get a similar engine car and run it under same condition and confirm with the dealer... if its not common its the dealers issue.....


Best of luck...
