The noise is, in fact, the fuel injectors. The fuel injection system
consists of a "rail" which is continuously under pressure. The
injectors are electro-magnetic devices, which open and close with an
impulse from the engine management system. When they open and close,
they "click".

I have this ticking noise on my 99 Weekender. We also have the same
ticking
noise on our 99 New Beetle. On the New Beetle Email List there was a
discussion a while back in which many said it was the fuel injection.
Don't
know if this is right or wrong, just passing on an idea.
