I started getting this strange rattling noise, driving home the other night from work.... It sounds like a "slinky" you know one of those 80's metallic toys, that walks down the stairs.
Anyway...its on the right side....when I wind the window all the way down and then try to listen to it....nothing happens It sounds like a metallic vibration noise. Sometimes it happens over bumps....sometimes just driving and hear it. It happened a couple of times, when I pressed the brakes on. Was still happening today, but not as much as yesterday. Anyone got any ideas what it is Oil seems to be okay...I topped a little bit over, and I checked yesterday...and it was way over..... go figure...why did it show really low last week....same problem you had spunky.

Was the engine hot or cold when you checked it? The B series engines take quite a while for all of the oil to trickle out of the galleries and into the sump.
Oil levels shouldn't be more than 2mm over the top marker - more can cause real issues with pressure in the engine and wear and tear. Rattle: is it engine or chassis do you think? |

Could be the metal that covers the exhaust after the manifold (underneath the front of the car) Mine was loose until a friend tig welded it back on tight.

Stupid rattling is getting worse...especially when its midnight, and I'm leaving work...heading down homebush drive....think it has something to do with front right brake/disc....cause I can hear it rattling and every once in a while I get this screeching noise when I press the brake.....
brakes shouldn't be worn though cause they're only about 6 months old Have to get my cousin to check it next week.

Its not the transmission....its something to do with the brakes/wheel/suspension on the right front...cause I can hear it squeaking from there....
Perhaps something is scraping against the disc as ocassionally there has been this screeching noise, when I press in the brake...after the vibrating noise I'm getting. Funny how it seems worse, when I'm leaving work at midnight...perhaps the temp being cold to.
