the other day, my car was making like a ticking noise queitly coming from somewhere underneath the idle control valve area. but as i've been using car, the ticking is getting louder and louder, especially after motorway driving. the ticking will speed up as i accelerate. i just got back and the ticking is loud as hell. what could it be????

Corsa C's tick very loudly when you take the airbox off and put a cone on. I know where the ticking comes from but don't know what the bit is. It does it on all of them but you can't normally hear it.
