Title: a rattle...
Post by: Aweful_Truth on December 30, 2012, 09:59:40 pm
the car has developed a loud rattle on idle, it sounds like its coming from beneath where the gear shift is located and im fairly sure its nothing inside the car. its only on idle and generally seems to be on a cold start, dont think ive heard it after ive been driving for a while. any input will be appreciated! hopefully get it up on the ramps at home soon
