bit of a weird one here guys.may be nothing but something rattling lose of may be serious -
when just cruising along in 5th gear if your doing around 40-45 MPH u can hear a thin metalic rattling.it seems to be coming from straight in front of the drivers position.but not within the car. it gets louder depending on how far you push the accelerator etc. i have tried getting it to repeat in 4th but it only seems to happen in 5th. i have checked the engine and theres nothing obviously loose etc.
im not saying a spend alot of time cruising at low speeds in 5th etc or booting it from low down in fifth etc before people quiz that.but when your plodding into work in traffic u obvioulsy sometimes are in 5th doing 40 - 45 MPH.
