E55, KitCar & '85 Quattro
I fixed the rattle in my car!!! FINALLY
Guess what it was? The metal pipe in my extended airfilter tubing (which goes through a hole that was made in the battery tray protector thing) was banging metal on metal. Its kind of hard to explain, but the picture shows it! I filled it down and put some snap on edger from my kitcar stuff and it worked a treat! I feel a fool now, as i really did think it was something more serious, but all it was was the engine moving and pulling the airfilter with it and banging it against the battery tray! (Even the renault engineers were baffled and the exhaust people at longlife tried telling me i needed uprated engine mountings!
Picture...(It explains which bit i mean is rattling!)
