Well at least he was honest, you might not have heard any knocking when you drove it lol.

Mine done a sort of rattle knock from the exhaust, was one of the exhaust rubbers rattling so I cable tied it, no longer makes the rattling noise .

Mine only really done it at very low revs or when horsing it around 80mph lol
