Citroen C3 engine Ticky?

Hi all,

The engine of my C3 (2014) seems to be quite rattly? it has a ticking noise that increases with revs when I pull off and in 2nd gear, and really quietens down when the engine is warm, after 5/10 mins of driving.

When sat at idle, it does smell quite rich. It drives seemingly fine? I've not had any issues with driving it so far.

I know that these engines don't get the best rep, and can be quite rickety and uneven anyway as they're 3 cylinder, and I'm just not really sure if there is anything/what is wrong?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated,

Cheers!
