Popping noise

Guys I'm about to rip my hair out. Ive been trying to figure this out for 2 days. Whenever I turn my key to the on position there is a popping or thumping noise under the passenger side dash. It does it about 4 times then stops. It's about to drive me crazy

ive heard of a popping noise coming from the back of the car which is typically the evap vent solenoid getting stuck, but never from the dash

100% sure its the exhaust making settling noises as it gets warm. metal contracts and expands as it gets hot. Thats whats happening. You'll notice the noise stops after a while and its only noticeable when you first start the car or shut the car off.

metal contracting is a pinging sound though, not popping
