Hi all,
for the last week I ve been having a rattle that was driving me crazy. It was coming from the passenger side, was appearing on certain revs, and sounded like glass. I thought it was the sunroof, so I took it off and drove the car without it, but the rattle was still there....i tried with the window up, down, middle, etc, no change.....
Then by complete chance, I discovered a plastic thing in the boot that I think is the source (see photos). I placed some bluetac around it (I know it looks bad, its just temporary - promise!)and the rattle has stopped. What exactly is this? It moves slightly up, down, left and right, and it makes a rattle whne you tap it.
On another note, I have more rattles in the car, but Im at a loss of where to look first. I know its Italian an all, but are there any known sources of rattling noises? Shall we start a database to record them (along with solutions?)
Cheers,
Solpap
