Looking for help and advice reference a tapping or rattling noise coming from the rear of my 2014 1.5 dci tekna car
Hi everyone I am a new 1.5 dci tekna owner with a 2014 model as from today but I have a bit of a problem with the car just hope someone can help! I purchased the car at a very good price with a brand new 12 months MOT and 3 months RAC Platinum Warranty and breakdown cover but since I brought it home I have noticed a tapping or rattle noise coming from rear of car.. I mentioned it to the garage who also heard it too now and upon further investigation they have no idea what it maybe.. Any suggestions or advice would be really appreciated..

Just joined and noticed this, have you checked the heat shield between the back exhaust box and the underside of the car (spare wheel well). I had a similar issue sounded like I was carrying a box of tools in the back, when I checked the 4 retaining bolts had come away from the aluminium shield and the shield itself was basically rattling around on top of the exhaust. I cured it with some rubber grommets.
