Stumped
Hey Guys Back again and Not with any good news im afraid 
Got 3 New Problems With My car which i want to try and Resolve Before i get rid of my car
1. Ticking Noise Behind the Dash, When the Car hits 40kph and over theres a Ticking Noise behind the Dash on Acceleration, My Dad thinks it could be the Speedo cable, so i thought id just ask for a second Opinion
2. Rubbing Noise coming for R/H/F Wheel when i take my foot off the accelerator theres a rubbing noise that can be heard and the car feels as if the brakes are tapped on lightly its only started happening recently since i had to brake hard on the highway at 100kpm to avoid hitting the car infront of me, Could this Be a seized caliper?
3. For about a week now since ive been driving to work at around 10k's of driving on the highway my Oil light comes on ive pulled over twice on the highway because of this freaking out that i have no oil in my car but alas no the oil is at the right level and im stumped, This happens everytime i now drive on the highway, Does anyone have an ideas?
I think the 3rd problem could either be a faulty sensor or because of my destroyed wiring loom, Any help would be much appreciated

Actually, the MB oil light indicates level only. Yeah I know, it's weird and unlike any other car I've ever seen.
There is a level sensor in the oil pan and it is connected to a time delay circuit to prevent the light from coming on during hard left turns. Or maybe it's right turns, don't recall. The time delay circuitry is behind the dash I believe.
