Hi people I've noticed a tinny vibration noise from the engine bay at 2000rpm in all gears it sounds like a heat shield or something, after about 2250rpm it goes away, its a bit annoying especially pulling away from lights etc any ideals other than this the cars going fine with know other issues to date, I'm hoping someone has come a cross this before to save a lot of time thanks
I had something similar, it was the heatshead under the carb one of the 10mm bolts had worked loose.
Worth a look anyway
Thanks I'll have a look tonight, it was getting irritating
Check the alloy guard that goes over the flywheel, mine came loose and made a similar noise
mine was the springs on my downpipe rattling on my exhaust.
Mine was starter motor heat shield.

Spent so much time chasing noises it's untrue!
Never had time to look tonight, I'm off Saturday though so at least I know a few points to look at thanks again people
Had I look tonight but couldn't see anything obviously loose could I get some pointers on where to look in the engine bay please people thanks in advance
Look towards the rear of the block, and go in armed with some spanners and tighten everything in sight
I had a rattlle, but only on overrun @ around 2krpm. Everything felt reasonably tight, but once I nipped up the down pipe/exhaust a bit more it disappeared
That's exactly what I've got thanks, day of tomorrow so know what I'll be doing
wont cause a rattle but deffinetly worth checking manifold nuts they allways back off. but its probably gonna annoy you for ages lol

problem solved it was the down pipe support bracket
mine was the same, took alot of fidling to get mine to stop
