Hi,

Looked through a couple of other threads but with the number of rattles the GP has it's a bit hard to identify :rolleyes:

Basically sometimes with the car at idle I can hear it, not always. But when I let the clutch out without pressing the accelerator, it gets louder. Can't hear it at any other RPM.
However with the car in neutral I can press and release the clutch the same way and get no noise.

I'll jack the car up tomorrow to have a proper look, check exhaust mounts etc, but just thought I'd post on here in case anyone knows. I'm currently visiting a friend so I've got a 200 mile journey home in a few days and would like it sorted before then.

Cheers

Shove an asbestos wrapped midget under the bonnet with a torch? :p
