a friend has an R reg renault megane with the "megane rattle" on acceleration. he wants me to fix it.
We had one like he does before we got an impreza (cos we realiesd french cars suck) and spent ages trying to figure out what it was.
what is it? sounds like exhaust manifold on chassis or something for breif period on acceleration.
every one does it. neighbours does, ours did, mates does. wtf is it?
cheers

Could always be the centre section heat shield, my old megan used to have the horrible rattling too, in the end I trimmed the heatshield and it was fine.
