   Though some more expensive owners may shed some light. Theres a rattle it sounds like a differential with the backlash set up all wrong so a metal tapping.
   
   It happens when I let off the throttle and dissapears on the throttle, brakes and when engine braking.
   
   I have been under the car the exhaust is bolted up tight, the arb isnt going anywere and everything else seems to be in place.
   
   It started after I hit a curb not paying attention.
   
   What do you guys suggest I check?

   I had a mysterious rattle in my Saxo. Strangely enough it stopped whenever the missus wasn't in the car...... Oh wait,,
