I have a new one but it's a c4 so the rears I changed but it's a bit more of a faff on the front so that's on the list, you're right though I'll check that this evening!

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Noises are notoriously difficult to diagnose when you're in front of the vehicle let alone over the internet but here goes!!!! Been for a drive didn't notice anything adverse. Gave the car a clean and as I was cleaning drivers side front wheel heard an odd light metallic rattle when I bang the wheel?!? I can make it do this by banging the tyre, pushing on the disc and even by banging on the inside of the frunk!! Checked the top mount that's tight! Sounds like something loose? Drop link perhaps but I thought I'd have picked that up whilst driving? Just wondered if anyone had experienced anything similar

POST 2Original post

Brake disc back plate/dust sheild loose perhaps, they do rust through on these cars :dont know:

POST 3Original post

:agree: Put you hand through the wheel if you can and try giving the back plate a tug. Should be able to rattle it about if its that.

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Oddly that side is missing!! Well partially missing anyway! I have a new one but it's a c4 so the rears I changed but it's a bit more of a faff on the front so that's on the list, you're right though I'll check that this evening! My unit isn't ready yet so I'm stuck working on it in my single garage which is crammed at best in all honesty

POST 5Original post

just a stupid idea but make sure the wheel center cap is not loose .

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Had a quick look, nothing loose. It's a weird noise but like a feint bell reverbing. Anyway grabbed the spring perch and the bottom of the shocks both times same noise but more pronounced. Shocker or top mount is my guess!! I'll take it to the Indy's next week and report back!!

POST 7 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Dropped down to my Indy's today and sodding typically it's fixed itself!!! Maybe something hopped on and hopped off the spring perch or even the control arm or maybe whatever was loose has not parachuted off!!! Car ran and handled fine so I won't worry ........unless it comes back!!!
