Default rear clicking noise

Hi I was driving home today and I turned off the radio and noticed this strange clicking noise coming out of what sounded like the back of the car. I haven't explored it fully yet since I got home around 11:30 but it seems to be happening around 800 rpm when accelerating or slowing down and seems to go away at higher rpms but I'm not sure because the engine sound might just be covering it up. It happens when I rev in neutral too so it's not a wheel issue as far as I can tell. Anyone have any ideas?
I'm not doing any servicing until about the end of November when I put my car away for the winter but I want to know if this might be something serious I need to look at before that.

you sure it's coming from the rear?

sounds like an exhaust leak at the headers to me.

I think I'm just gonna put it off until I get a checkup done, doesn't really sound too serious to me.

IMO, save your self a couple of dollars and buy a $10 can of sea foam and test for an exhaust leak and clean all of that carbon out of your engine at the same time
