w211 e240 strange ticking noise at speeds above 40

when the cars idle its ok,no noise just 2malfunctions
1.srs mal.
2.elctronic consumers low.(which is not going away since i like start it everyday)

then comes the driving part,since 3 or 4 days theres this weird (trrr-rrr-rrr ) sound form the left,front side first it came on when i was driving at a high speed i think 140 km/h or something the next day on lower speeds and now as i go above 40 km/h its startss trrrrrrrrr and if i ignore it the sound remains the same but the speed of this noise increases,even if i put it in neutral the sound is still there.
but when the cars still and i rev it nothing no rattling nothing at all..........

WHAT DO I DO any1.
thnkx in advance,this car has costed me ALOTTT so many problems damn i m gonna sell it right away as soon as i get these things fixed.....

You may have a tired battery with the error codes......

What year is the car?

If you have the AirMatic air suspension system as I do with my 2003 E500, it could be the pump which is located in the left front of the engine compartment. Otherwise, I have no clue for the noise.

Airmatic pump possibly.
