  1. SUCCESS! I put my is200 into a garage which I've not used before for a service & MOT. I mentioned the rattle to them and guess what! They've fixed it.... It turns out it was a slightly loose battery cover! I though't I'd checked everywhere, even had a few garages look at it over the last year. After all that hassle and worry.... Hopefully yours will be something as trivial as that too! Regards, John
  2. I can't belive it! I found a random bit of rubber about 8 inches long (Not a dildo) in my car which looked similar to a section of wiper blade, after moving it around constently for a month I decided it hadn't fallen off of anything important/probably wasn't from the car at all, so I binned it. And lo, I now have a rattle from the closed sun roof. This comment triggered me to check the wind deflector with the roof open and guess what, I can see a clean part about 8 inches long where the offending seal fell from. Damn it! I wish I'd kept it for another few weeks! Time for some DIY I think. Thank you! B
  3. Hi, I'm getting a similar issue with my Y reg, only 65k on the clock. The rattle is intermittent, sounds quite tappety but not too sure on the origin, it can happen when the lump is hot or cold so I know this doesn't effect it. I had a bit of a poke around the engine bay and all covers appear to be secure. Fortunately it's booked for a full service on Monday so I'll get them to check it out then (providing it happens when it's in the shop, sod's law it won't). Thanks for the advice on the pulleys/belts I'll have a look and get back next week if I find anything. Only brought the car July 2010 and haven't noticed it until last month (May 2011), (Prob driving like a tw*t so didn't notice) Cheers B
  4. Hi All, Definately the high breaklight bulb, this happened to mine 2 weeks after I bought it (July 2010). The handbreak light flicked on/off intermittently during journeys. After reading this thread I put it in the garage as it was warranty covered, the high breaklight bulb wasn't seated correctly. After it was replaced I no longer had the issue. No yellow lights, no engine failure and no fluid loss. Cheers B
