Welcome to the forum mate

Probably warped brakes or a knackered wheel bearing. Probably needs looking at if you're at a loss.

Welcome by the way, hope you're enjoying your car get some pics up when you can in the members section :thumb:

Hi Andy and wlecome to the forum.

Where was the rattle - front, back, near/off side etc?

Andy 1684 10 November 2013 03:49 PM

I would say its front off side or maybe middle

Cheers.

So guys, is it still likely to be heatshield?
(I haven't a clue Andy, but someone will give you/us a good indication) :thumb:

id check drop links on the front if it happens when pulling off or stopping

Andy if your close to me I'll take a peek for you :thumb:

I would say if you have grooved discs that it will be pad rattle, especially if it co-incides with braking. You may be getting a bit of pad knock off - and welcome :D

Andy 1684 12 November 2013 01:45 PM

Thanks for the advice and welcome everybody will have a good look around it at the weekend or take it to scotty44 if he doesn't mind
