Lerm New Member 11 Member For: 5y 1m 10d Posted 21/02/22 06:26 AM Share Posted 21/02/22 06:26 AM So I bought a 2014 xr6 turbo a month ago and for a while I had a rattling noise from the engine bay on idle and have just realised it also rattles when at low rpm (cant hear much at mid-high rpm due to the exhaust). I can really only hear the rattling noise when sitting in the drivers seat with the window down, I just had the idler pulley, pulley tensioner and drive belt replaced because I thought that was the issue but its still there. Any help would be appreciated as it doesn't sound good at all. Mods (all done by previous owner): 1000cc injectors 3.5inch turbo back exhaust with 4 inch cat and mid muffler delete fuel pump (unsure what fuel pump) 1000hp rated intercooler battery relocation/turbo side intake braided turbo oil line NPC twin plate clutch 1000hp rated tuned to 327rwkw Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/96620-rattling-noise-in-engine-bay/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

k31th less WHY; more WOT Site Developer 29,413 Member For: 17y 7d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne Posted 21/02/22 06:36 AM Share Posted 21/02/22 06:36 AM it says "NPC twin plate clutch" ... it's a manual... that being said, all twin plate clutches rattle around a bit when they're in neutral... Does it happen when you're sitting still and changing the revs? or does it only happen when you're rolling/driving?

cat007 Member 236 Member For: 6y 7m 13d Posted 26/02/22 01:58 AM Share Posted 26/02/22 01:58 AM Clutch thrust bearing? Or spigot bearing perhaps?

Lerm New Member 11 Member For: 5y 1m 10d Posted 30/03/22 08:54 AM Author Share Posted 30/03/22 08:54 AM Could it be one of those things if the sound happens when the clutch is engaged and disengaged?
