Default Need Help!

I have had this really annoying rattling sound occuring recently and its always there ie on idle or motion. However I think after a certain amount of rpm it goes away.

It sounds as if its coming from the drivers side front wheel arch and it seems as if its rattling due to something loose just wondering if anyone could share some light??

Have a search for TCT on the forum as well as youtube.

It could also be the exhaust manifold heatshield. Get in there and have a wiggle, whilst applying the throttle (on a cold engine )

Any recent work, changes, mods or bits added? does the rattle happen more when cold or hot?

Find the rev range where it rattle the most get a mate to hold it steady at those RPMs and then go in search.

Just an update.

I have posted a video which I made via my iPhone, sorry about the sound, you will have to turn the volume up
