There is a noticable clicking sound coming, I think, from the engine of my car only higher--i.e. freeway speeds. Over --60 mph or above, if I press the accelerator I hear it and it is slowly getting louder with time. Formerly I thought it was pre-ignigion knock but now I am not so sure. Car is US spec. 6,000 miles, I use 93 octane fuel. On the freeway, I have taken the car up to, oh 75 mph put the transmission in Neutral, the clicking sound goes away. Back in gear and press the accelerator, it's there again. It is starting to be intrusive: You can't not hear it

Hoping someone can give me some help or information here, before I take the car to my dealer.
Basically I love the car, I think it will be a very good machine.
