Looking at this recently posted pic it looks like it may hold the intake pipe in place?

yeah just take out the indicator and you should see the bolt ! I used a box spanner as I didn't want to drop anything inside! ![]() |

Hi, this sounds like the possible noise I am hearing on my car. When you say rattle is it more of a knocking sound or a buzzing vibration? Mine makes a knocking sound when going over certain road cambers and bumps. Doesn't happen all of the time but sounds almost like a loose bolt rolling back and forth in a small gap behind the glove box. Have had the glovebox out but no joy. Any ideas what this may be, or could it be the same issue?

Yep, checked it and that bolt was loose. Hopefully cured that rattle but not been far enough to be sure yet.

Had this rattle driving me mad for the last 6 months as well - Just run out in the rain with a torch and guess what - 1 very loose bolt - tightened up (also thought the thread felt iffy like it may strip so didn't overdo it) - just been for a quick spin and it's perfect. Thanks Stownrow |

Very interesting! Mine only last week started to have a buzzing type sound from what sounded like the left side of the dash. It was when you coast down to a standstill. So will try this solution!
