Not to sure about the noise when running, but the clicking sound when the car is off sounds more like heat sheild cooling and popping. This maybe the same noise you hear will the car is running. This is a normal sound but you may be able to reduce it by tightening or just removing the sheilds. They usually start rattling after awhile any way.
