Rattle when accelerating/over bumps.. exhaust mounts?

[RobSuf]

Hi,

 

On the way home from work today pulling off a sliproad I started to hear a rattle underneath what sounded like underneath the center console.. it is worse at lower RPM.

 

Anyone had anything similar?

 

Cheers

Panic over, I'm 90% sure its the slip joint/clamp for the front section of the exhaust.

 

Thank the lord for the internet lol.

It sounds too deep and dull to be the slip joint.

 

Perhaps a loose plastic guard?

Also check the stone guards behind the disc brakes. The mountings rust away.

Just as an update to this, it was the exhaust clamp as hoped. 

 

I'm surprised it wasn't louder haha. Spot the issue...

 

 

 

Easy fix

 

 

 

This is the part if anyone else has the same issue:

Mk2 Fabia vRS ones.
