_Josh_ Member 11 Member For: 17y 9m 14d Location: Newcastle Posted 12/08/07 10:39 AM Share Posted 12/08/07 10:39 AM I have a 04 BA mk1 and over the last week or so its started to rattle, I have narrowed it down to somewhere in the front left hand side. I also have noticed that it only happens when youre not on the brakes, if you braking and hit a little but no rattle, but if your not on the brakes it sounds like the suspension is loose or something.any ideas??

This could be the rattle you are hearing. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/37422-front-left-rattle/#findComment-563806 Share on other sites More sharing options...
