    Default Slight rattle noise...

    Hi all,

    After having the front wheel hub fixed, I've noticed a slight rattle noise when pulling off in 1st. It sounds to me like the exhust is starting to go... (hav'nt jacked and checked yet).....

    If it is how much and what do I need to do regards the exhust system. My car is a 1.8LS by the way...

    Before you start replacing exhausts, a guy at work had a rattle on his Vecta B when pulling off.
    I had a look underneath & the heat shield was hanging down.
    He fixed it in place....rattle gone

    Something worth checking

    Thanks guy's....

    Yeah I'm a bit concerned as when the wheel hub unit was being replaced I asked the mech to check if the heat sheild or exhuast was okay and he said they were fine.....

    Looks like I'll need to jack her up and have a look.
