[I have my first rattle]

Got my rattle fixed on Friday by the dealer. 13MY 170 CR. They tell me it was the clutch pipe. Repostitioned and fitted with anti rattle tape. I'll try to find what they've done and photograph it, but the rattle is certainly gone.

I had a rattle when I depressed the clutch pedal. Dealer also stated it was coming from the clutch pipe hitting of something else. They moved it and I was a happy chap for roughly two weeks. Rattle is back but worse than before. It's now rattles when the engine revs between 1,500--2,500rpm. Doing my head in.   I'll be sending it back into them to sort it properly.

[Front grill removal]

Not straightforward at all, especially compared to some of the other older grills. Not a bad price to get it fitted.Saves you all the hassle and cursing at the car.

I may still end up going down a similar route as yours.

[Front grill removal]

I'm in the same boat. Got the black grill and surround last week. I've tried twice to try and get the original grill off but it's not budging. Clips are very tight and little access to the ones at the side of the grill. I don't want to break anything as I'd probably put the standard grill back on if selling the car in the future. I think I'll be taking the front bumper off for better access.
