tsp Posted September 1, 2010 Share Posted September 1, 2010 Hi all,I'm wondering if anyone can help me?! My vti Aerodeck is making a funny noise, it's starting to drive me mad! I thought I'd better had try and find out what it is before it gets terminal!When you depress the clutch pedal to change up the gears it makes a funny vibrating noise. I'd probably say it's a metal on metal sound. It's something in the engine bay, maybe a rattling exhaust heat sheild or something similar. I don't think it's clutch/gearbox related, that's just when it happens.I've had a poke around under the bonnet but I've not found anything loose, so maybe it's under the car? On an odd side note, I think it's louder when the air con is on and the vents are open.... Can anyone help me?Thanks,Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
