250 Ticking Noise

Hi,

Appreciate if anyone can help in pinpointing to the potential source this noise in Megane 250.

Regards,

Disapproving wife in the passenger seat?

Does it speed up with engine revs or stay at the same rate? Is it a constant rate at idle or is it sporadic? Is the car running ok?

Yes, it speed up with engine revs and constant at idle speed (like the video). The car is running perfectly.

Sounds speed related as opposed to revs.......
I'd start looking at the brakes/driveshafts/gearbox

Are you running spacers? I had exactly the same noise on my LR Discovery 4 and it was due to the spacers not being seated correctly and the wheel was moving ever so slightly off centre:

I don't have spacers. Used to and removed since I went for OZ Wheels.

I still think you should be checking over those components. Given they're newly changed, something may not of been tightened correctly.
