Hello, I own a 51 plate Multipla 1.9 JTD. It's a great car and would love to solve some of the issues. I will list them separately. Further to my previous post relating to the heating system I have a rattle i can not identify.
When the car is idling there is a rattle that comes and goes every few 2-3 seconds, It is not constant but it is always there after a few seconds. If I put my foot on the accelerator very slightly and increase the rpm's by say 100 the rattle disappears, If I take my foot off then it's back. When driving i can't hear or feel anything.
Reversing is also an Issue as the speeds are always low so the rattle is again there every 2-3 seconds. Any ideas? had a look in the engine bay and it seems to be coming from the left hand side as i look down, I can see a belt, not sure if it's the timing belt or fan belt.
Not sure if the issue is related but the car also screeches when in damp conditions, I need to drive it hard to reduce the noise level. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
