Alright so recently I have been noticing my car making this clicking sort of sound. Sometimes it increases with the revs but sometimes I don't hear it.
here is the sound, can anyone help? usually only hear it at parking lot speeds.

Also on occasions I hear a teakettle like noise that sometimes raises with the rpms at parking lot speeds. Any idea what these could be??

Video doesn't work for me but might be fuel lines rattling. Check out my video, will have to search through my history of a thread I made. Turn out it was the fuel lines... Easy fix if that's what it is.

Audio quality isn't good enough to say for sure. Two likely suspects are fuel line rattle (there's a TSB on this) and exhaust. If it's the latter, it is probably the connector piece that links the catback to the downpipe. It's located just in front of the rear wheels and has 2 13mm nuts that lock the two pieces together. I've read other reports of one of these nuts working loose and creating exhaust leaks. If you get the car up on jack stands or ramps, you should be able to better locate the sound.
