evinX Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Hi all, i have a really bugging rattling sound on the supra, i thought it could be stones in the bumper or skirts, but after a few checks, it seems to happen even if the front driver side wheel moves slightly, when driving at around 10-20 mph its really annoying any ideas? thanks, Kevin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adam1983 Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Could be a heatshield or something loose underneath the car. I had a rattling noise when i was travelling really slowly and it was very annoying. Got it on a ramp and turned out to be a loose metal clip rattling against the downpipe. Does it rattle when stood still with the engine running? Mine didnt at first but obviously became worse when it got looser over time.

Supra Gaz Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 is it a can of Hamerite in the boot . Damn it! Beaten to it, thats exactly what I was going to say. On a more useful note, could it be a loose exhaust mount? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Purity14 Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Go over an uneven road, then do it again with the brakes slightly on, does it still rattle? if yes then take your wheels off, and grab your caliper - does it move? I had a rattle and took ages to find out what it was.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havard Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Could the retaining clips on the pads have come loose? I seem to remeber CW saying something about this in the past. It's either that or your paint is cracking? H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Could the retaining clips on the pads have come loose? I seem to remeber CW saying something about this in the past. It's either that or your paint is cracking? H. This. I can hear rattling like coins in a pocket (like when playing pocket hockey) from the passenger side when going slowly and over bumps, and it seems to be what CW said a while ago about about the anti rattle shims/retaining pins/clips on the pads.

Guigsy Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 It's not your inner wheel arch is it. Mine was rubbing on the inside of the front wheel. Does it go when you turn? Give me a shout if you need someone to listen from the outside of the car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
