Hi everyone, newbie here :D

For the past while I've been experiencing a light ticking noise whenever I let my car idle. I have found that pushing on either the brake or clutch pedals slightly causes the ticking to stop, but I really don't want to have to keep doing that for ever just to keep sane :p

Maybe there's a line somewhere that is too loose and hits against something and tightens with the action of the pedals?

Thanks for any help!
