Hi,

I have checked the posts on this but to no avail.

Anyway when my car is under load (e.g going up a hill or in a high gear at low revs) it makes a rattling noise from the front (appears to be drivers side but i cant be definite). If i increase the revs it goes. On idle it doesnt do anything unusual.

Also i have noticed that when i accelerate from standstill the engine shudders and the car vibrates a little.

Does anyone know what these problems could be, and are they linked?

Many thanks in anticipation

Paul

I have checked under the bonnet and the rattling seemed to be related to the top end. Sparks plugs seem fine.

Any advice on how to fix it?

Mine was a heat shield on the back of the cam cover rattling (just above the manifold)
