Default Clicking noise from dash

Anyone else have this? When sat still say at lights, theres the odd click/tick noise which sounds like its coming from behind the dash (i.e behind the speedo etc) - its very random and sometimes clicks 5/6 times in space of a minute, but then will go hours without doing it. Could it be thermostat for air con or something like that?

Do you have meta sat tracking fitted? These can click due to it updating the sat position.

Is it the same click you get when your too long from unlocking to turning the engine over, if so it could be just the immobiliser
