![]() There is a fuse box and the BCU up behind the glove box. . The emergency fuel cut off reset is there as well. Not that that would be clicking.

![]() Could actually be coming from anywhere, best to get a passenger to track it down when you are on the move.

![]() Could it be the fuel vapour recirculation valve? This is attached to the side of the battery box and has a very loud click when the system starts up. It only runs now and then, usually when the engine's ticking over. From inside, it will seem like a very loud tappet.
