I have noticed an odd sound, that occurs only at speed 30-40 mph and only when you release gas pedal.
It sounds like a ticking sound, but loud enough to hear it, and this only happens when the car has been driven for few miles before work or after it stood parked all day. Sound seems to be coming from front end of the car, more on the passenger side.

Any clues what this can be.

Thanks

I would first guess at bent heat shield ... That is changing shape with heating up, in the undercarriage

I have a 2016 w/6,000 miles on the clock and have the same exact issue. The car has been in 2x's, on both occasions they were unable to duplicate the clicking sound. I may wait for the 10,000 service as the only one who seems as bothered by me by the sound is my 7 year old.
