undercar rattle

[marris09]

Can any1 suggest any known things that rattle/come loose? seems to be backend rattle and sounds like metal hitting metal.seems to do it mainly on bumpy roads but not every bump if ya get me.Ive had quick look under and nothing seems to be loose

check the exhaust first see if all the rubbers are ok, if not is the spare wheel tight?

Check the exhaust heat shield isn't loose as well.

[marris09]

Yer Tbf I had wrk done when I had axle put on n they left the heatshield hanging.my uncle put it back on best he could.but doesnt look like its hanging again.what would u suggest if its front end? 1 min it sounds like its comin from back then il hear it again n sounds like front.

[adam19]

[adam19]

mine was just behind my handbrake

[marris09]

Don't no if its worth mentioning but when I have 3 ppl in back noise don't seem as bad?

Another thing to check is the rear seats rattling against the parcel shelf,& the interior boot trim.Having people in thee back would add weight against the seats.Also if the rattle is under the cat then there`s not so much space for a component to vibrate against.:drink:

If lowered....
ARB end plate bolt
Put a 13mm spanner on and see if you can tighten it
If so, that's probably your source of rattling!
