yeah took me a while to source it (not being the brightest of wannabe engineers) and I found it was just the passenger seat belt bukle klunking between the seat and the door, realy pain in the @rse that Ive yet to sort out but i think there is a recent thread on here so hopefully it may just be the same thing

ive got the seat belt buckle noise too. its under the car. well its under the footwell. i think it may be the clutch or gearbox. when i bought the car, i slight noise was there but when i put the clutch down it went. it seems to of started from that. its just got worse. my engine light is on and it seems to hold so much power back. i really need a gd mechanic. wandsworth honda couldnt help me. they said the light was triggered from an electric fault but i know its not. i think its got something to do with that noise!!! any suggestions? also anyone else suffured with the managment light? WHY DOES IT CUT POWER???

If it cut power it probably means it was in 'limp home' mode after thinking it had a fault.

Has the light come back on since it was reset by Honda?

Do you have power back? or are you still without power and without the engine mgmt light?

p.s the return key is your friend

just
don't
use
it
too

If you post pictures of rattles on a forum, it is far easier to determine what they might be
