Could you lot go out side and wiggle your airbox. Mine seemed a bit 'loose' and made noises going over bumps. I just took it out and put it back in and the sound was gone. This probably is not the noise you guys are hearing (i dont think have the rattle you guys describe). But this was one I had.
I remember Reading your original 'disaster post' and could only feel gutted for a fellow scoob owner. I'm glad you've made bad scenario into a good one.
Crossing my fingers for you! Keep us posted.
Oh and save up some pennies for some brakes and suspension!!!
A shout for Jon B for his time today chasing electrical gremlins!!
(Remember don't get them wet or feed them after midnight)
Was good to meet a thoroughly good chap willing to help out.
