W205/C450 Loud Ticking, changes with acceleration - Going Crazy with this car

***SOLVED*** Was a branch somehow stuck in my pano roof tapping my A-Pillar... Not my brightest moment.**** (Not sure how to delete posts here).

Hi all,

Got into my C450 this morning and as soon as I started driving, it started ticking very loudly. The noise changes based upon what speed I'm going. Was hoping it was just a stick or something stuck in the wheel, however, it seems that's not the case...

I also searched the forum, but this doesn't seem to be related to AC or anything along those lines. AC/Air was off, Music was off.

Anyone have any idea what this is?

It sounds like you either have something stuck in a wheel or you have a lifter sticking or going bad to me. Doesn’t sound like anything very serious though.
