  • HELP! weird tapping/ rattling noise

    Hi guys! I'm hoping one of you has had something similar and cured it as im tearing my hair out with it!! My ds3 1.6 vti has developed a weird indescribable noise which happens when decelerating and accelerating, mainly 1st 2nd and slightly 3rd gear. And only does it when the clutch is engaged (not pressed) apart from sometimes the noise will continue when you're in 1st gear coming to a stop with the clutch pressed down. The car is on 69,000 miles and I service it way more than need be.

    Here's a video, and ideas/ help from people with experience would be appreciated. Cheers jamie

    I can't listen to it (no headphones at work)

    But it's not anything like a whistle is it?
    If so it could be a loose earth cable: http://www.ds3club.co.uk/showthread....centre-speaker

    But not sure as I'm taking a stab in the dark because I can't listen to the video!

        This was on the forum under Technical which started in August of this year, not sure what the final outcome was. There was a recording posted of the clicking sound.
