///M Power-Belgium had a listen and seems to think the same as me that I have an exhaust leak. It's one hell of a tick noise but it's only audible on the drivers side, can't hear it on the passenger side.
Once she's out of surgery I'll let you know

Update :
Craig..Like usual I received more videos from other people ,but here is something interesting from today about the S65 ticking noise !
Here is what he found out about the S65 ticking noise , in his words via PM ..

=> The loud exhaust leak type tick sound are the valves behind the engine that help heat up the catalytic converters, because cats don't work cold, thus why after warmed up that loud (exhaust leak sound) vanishes. thats why when i was under the car i hear that loud tick noise right in the cats. it all makes sense now. what a relief.
