My car has just gained what is officially the worlds most annoying rattle.

Accelerate.... rattle rattle rattle donk
Brake.... rattle rattle rattle donk
Turn left.... rattle rattle rattle donk
Turn right.... rattle rattle rattle donk

Its like a little bit of plastic is rolling about in a door pocket but is able to do it when you steer left and right. I have removed all tat from the interior, still doing it.

So omnidirectional, it does sound as though it is coming from the hand brake lever itself.

Doing my tits in.
 
Presume you've checked for anything left under a seat etc?
 
Tool come loose in the spare wheel zone around the boot, or a locking wheel nut rolling around (wherever you keep them)?

P.S. Apologies if I'm just making inane suggestions that you've already tried

I was thinking in the spare wheel too. I've had that before and was seriously annoying
 
I normally just turn the radio up but the pitch of the rattle just pierces though.
 
wasnt there something on here to do with the boot locking mechanism? that was rattling like fook until adjusted?

Right its not the spare wheel... It really sound like its coming from in the hand brake lever

has the passenger seat been folded forward then put back into place? Mine rattler like a bottle bank if i dont do it right :)
 
Yup. Spent four hours trying to find this. Sounds like its coming from beneath the hand break.

Nota happy man.
 
Right. Really getting ****** off now. I have tracked down the noise to either under the carpet where the hand brake comes though or the two plastic bits on the inside bottom of the seats... They are pretty much the only trim i haven't removed so far
 
Instead of plowing on and dismantling the car without knowing what im doing, how you I remove the seats? going to have a look under the carpet
