well. it sounds like its right infront of you like
at the firewall. so thats what im assuming..
And because it only happens
when im in gear with no accelerator on.. doesn tmatter what speed. could
be going 80kph in 4th, let off the pedal and it might start to
rattle. this makes me think its definatly engine/gear box..

Yes,
get the mechanic to check the glass bottle ;)
They
put plastic bottles on the later models.
Does
the sound definately come from the engine???
Could be something equally stupid like wheel
bearings.
Yeh. it is 5 speed.. hmm, ill get off to the
mechanic then... explode in a million bits doesnt sound too
good.

Someone might've tied a glass bottle to your car with a piece of
string...
Ok.. ill explain the symptoms and if anyone
has any ideas it would be greatly appreciated..
Its on a manual
transmition.
The car makes this rattling noise.. if you
can picture in your head someone dragging a glass bottle on a string
along the road... thats what it kkinda sounds like. its very loud, and
can be heard clearly within the car while driving.
It only makes this sounds sometimes. when
IN gear with no gas on. if you are in neutral, or you have the clutch
it, or you give the accelerator even the slightest push.. the noise
stops.
A common time it will happen,, a small round about. you
come up to it, shift down to second, and say you were turning
right, as soon as you take your foot off the accelerator the rattling
starts up... you put the pedal down to exit the round about and it goes
away..
So yes.. any
ideas?
