    Im hearing this ticking noise when im on the throttle. The car runs fine, and im seeing around 19 mpg. i know this isnt the greatest description, but any ideas? Also Im throwing an EGR code, could this be a contributer?

    no, the exhaust leak is causing the computer to throw a egr code, the egr is fine, once the leak is fixed the egr code will go away
