Is it inconsistent?

........my ED30 started doing this a few days ago. It was the fuel lines & was fixed by doing the guide in this thread. Couple of extra cable ties to hold it even more secure & perfect no more rattle. :smiley:

Post by: phil bert on August 04, 2013, 09:24:04 am: the more I think about it I think it could have something to do with the duel mass flywheel as when I had brake fluid changed other week I mention to the guy about the clutch and he did say it didn't seem right , but until they opened the gearbox up couldn't say if it was pressure plate or hydrolic leak ? or fly wheel so I think better get credit card ready

My metallic rattling disappeared with new complete kits, but it is a big expense to spend on an idea.
