Excuse the odd title but have been trying to think of a way to describe a noise that I have when going over bumps. Not just big bumps, any size bumps. It sounds like a Morris dancers bell rattling. Been under the car. Checked heat shield and exhaust generally. All seems fine. I’m at a loss. It makes the noise at any speed 5-40mph. After that road noise blocks it out but pretty sure it will still be there. It’s a 2011 plus 2. Any help gratefully received.

Posted in exhaust action as well, as have no idea where it’s coming from.

Hard to advise if I don't know how "Morris dancer" sounds like :)

I think I have managed to pinpoint that the 'jingle' is coming from the catalytic converter. Im guessing something has worked loose in there??
