Hi all, got back from my week in Devon today. Anyway, whilst down there my engine seemed to be making a worrying rattly noise at 3-4000rpm, I thought it may be overheating but the temp was normal and it wasn't losing any coolant or oil. Went to a garage and they had a quick look, they said the noise is coming from the downpipe/exhaust heatshield area. They didn't have much spare time so they just tightened it all up for me. Well the noise is still quite bad to be honest, is it a case of a new downpipe or what? How much is it likely to be? Cheers.

that kidna noise is usually the heatshield, no sure where it is on the NA but i get it on mine when the engine has become overheated (sat in traffic etc.)
