Grating Noise from Rear

Recommended Posts

I bought a 2014 hybrid Auris yesterday. The car worked perfectly on the first day, but on the second day, I noticed a noise. It is a grating sound coming from the rear of the car when accelerating and the EV mode switches off, and the petrol engine starts. There is no noise when in EV mode, but when the petrol engine engages during acceleration, there's a momentary grating sound from the rear. Can anyone tell me if this is normal (I doubt it?) or what might be the issue? Or should I just return the car to the dealer?

To back to the dealer and ask they sort the issue.

Hi, 

you can record a video of the event so we can hear the noise and eventually recognise it and give you suggestions, or as mentioned just go back to the place you have bought the car. Perhaps a quick video will be interesting. 
Thanks

Thank you @TonyHSD and @FROSTYBALLS. Already solve the problem. Rattling noise was heat plate from exhaust pipe. They use so much salt on the roads here in Finland so rust does its job.
