Default Renault Clio Rattle - 05-20-2007 , 02:15 PM






Hi

Renault Clio automatic rattle?
I have a 1.6L 1999 renault Clio. I live on a hill and when I set off
on a morning the there's always a rattle under my bonnet when accelerating
in first and second gear. When I get to work and drive on the flat its
USUALLY ok with the odd exception, but again if it does rattle, if I lift up
off the accelerator it disappears. Any ideas what the problem might be



Thanks

Exhaust heat-shield? Once it's warmed up it may expand enough to bind
tight on something and loosen again when it's cold.
