Hi all
I have an annoying rattle coming from the passenger side. Having searched the forum for noise/rattle related posts it occurred to me that a thread of common and not so common noises would be a good thing to have?
I figure that this would be useful for all older or newer models that have not changed a great deal in layout or materials. If it's all in one place then its easier for us all to find. If it became a list you could then take it with you on a test drive?
Description:
It would need as a minimum:
Some idea of this location, drivers, passenger, overhead, roof, back, engine bay, underneath.
What it sounds like, metallic, thud, grinding, tinkling etc
When does it occur, moving greater than 30mph, at standstill etc
Tried already:
What from the list have you ruled out and why.
Resolution:
The last one here is important since we want definite fix details.
Good idea or am I re-inventing the wheel?
regards
Nov '16: Since initial post, I found the rattle to be the fridge not being properly closed. A firm push with the palm is required. As it settles this will probably take care of itself.
