I noticed a rattle today when sat at some light today, it's hard to make out where abouts it is as you can't really hear it from the engine bay. Between the engine bay and the front seat maybe? Only does it on idle any sort of movement on the accelerator and it disappears. I've seen something about a fuel line rattle and wondered if anyone else has had this noise? You can only hear it with the radio turned down. If it's any link, I also had the cam belt done a week ago but only started driving it again the Friday
Cheers

Hi had the same with mine took under body tray off drivers side and used 15mm pipe lagging cut in half pushed it in around the fuel lines this sorted it out for me still fine a year on hope you get it sorted

Yup sounds like the fuel line rattle, remove the plastic side trim (drivers side) just under the car it's quite a big piece and you'll see a few lines in there, just chuck something soft in there to stop them rattling. Did mine about 18 months ago and havent heard a peep since.

Will get it on the ramp at work Tuesday, nice one guys. Not having much luck with the car this week, since the rattling started yesterday, the engine light came on - code p0441-Evaporative emissions system incorrect purge flow. Hoping that it's the pipe by the charcoal canister as had the cam belt replaced the other day and wonder if it is something one of the mechanics at psi tuning has done.
