Yep got it, plus I think I've seen it on cards, in phoneboxes, too ;) Weather should be ok tomorrow I hear :)

I'll have a look/listen in the morning and let you know what it is if I can.

Whats your favourite jap car, not including the 300ZX :cool: Including it would be unfair because it is clearly the best ;)

Ahh cool cheers Cos :) - have you had a go at stopping it rattling?

:D:D:D:smw::D:D:D

Think I'm gonna have to jack it up tomorrow to find out. I wouldnt imagine it'd be the exhaust as its a stainless steel mongoose, only a few years old, with decats. Or is the heatshield bolted above the exhaust? Hmmm could be that then :) Might tighten the handbrake cables whilst its jacked up to see if thats cure it too. Cheers Pete

Hello :) When starting up my car, already warm, a few seconds into idle I often hear a metallic clunk followed by rattling, like a metal cable vibrating against something also metal. The noise comes from under the centre of the car. Any ideas what this could be? Handbrake cable maybe? It goes away after you start moving. Cheers Pete

LOL You still here Mick? :rolleyes: School in the morning...

Hehe no probs :)

Arse! Not you...the situation ;) Mine's for sale (see for sale section) but I want a cheaper fast car to swap with, if you'd have said you'd bought it for £3k lol...;) Good luck bud :) Pete

You critisised the owner, not the car, if you read back... See ya...

:rolleyes: Yeah well done Mick, go and lie in the big hole you've dug yourself... :confused:

FFS Mick :rolleyes: Nobody's comparing bad luck stories here, lay off for Gods sake :( Ben's bashed up his car, and is understandably gutted, just because there are worse things in life doesnt mean he's not allowed to express emotion over this :mad: Why not take your own advice... Pete

I've still got mine :dance:

Are you sure? ;) I thought the sun was the same temp ;)

Yeah and you buy them :p

I know Otter is.

So let me get this straight - Mike is short for Michael ? - WTF? When did this happen?? :confused: ;)

LOL ;) No I'll still be there, just with less power.

LMFAO!! :D We all know you dont have anything planned :rofl: ;) See you there mate ;) Pete

Arsebiscuits! :mad: Got a bit of detting at 15psi last night :mad: Must be the weather warming up. Can you change mine to 350BHP flywheel, and a hopeful 13.4@107mph, gonna knock boost down to 12.5psi again :( Cheers Pete
