Ticking noise possibly exhaust related?
I just had my exhaust manifold and muffler replaced today. I notice when I accelerate I hear a ticking noise. I have needed work on the exhaust system for about 7 years, and I have always heard the noise, but thought it was due to the muffler and manifold being rusted out. Now that I had those 2 items replaced, I still hear the noise (of course the system as a whole is 100 times quieter). The shop told me that everything else looks good as far as the exhaust is concerned....so what would be this ticking noise that I hear? I hear it when I first start up the car, and when I accelerate (gets faster upon acceleration), but I don't hear it at all when not accelerating. 1999 Dodge Durango with only 74,000 miles.
