Hi All I am currently in France with no tools or diagnostic equipment.
I am assuming that it's a miss fire or exhaust issue.
The car is acellerating ok and at higher RPM the noise seems to go away at least I can't hear it
It started as a ticking noise on acceleration and has progressed to a raspy Exhaust and ticking noise and at gentle acceleration with lots of pops at lower rpm.
Any ideas or anything I can do with minimal tools I was going to try unplugging and plugging the coil packs.
But if that fails planning to drive home on Saturday regardless as the car drives fine just annoying noises
Blown exhaust gasket?? Hole in the exhaust??

Thank Carolyn I am glad I am thinking the same as the oracle when it comes to these cars.
I will just wait until I get back home and can have a real look.
