   Over the past few weeks I've started hearing a rattle from the handbrake area started off quite subtle mainly when turning left but now it happens most if the time just wondered if any ones had the same problem and managed to solve it, I used the search button but couldn't find a solution so any help is much appreciated, thanks in advance

   could be the heat sheild in the tunel they tend to rot around the erm well thing that holds em on n then they fall down n rattle on th exhaust. thats the usual cause or it could be somthing els all together, hope that helps

   Mine does this, its where your exhaust isnt mounted quite right, usualy near the middle exhaust mount.
