NC injector rail rattle

Postby kayye » Fri Oct 12, 2012 11:23 pm

Hey guys, so recently I have discovered this rattling noise when the car is idling. The rattling noise is most prominent when the car is stationary and as you are releasing the clutch and the car begins to move the rattling becomes really loud.

When the injector rail is held still the rattlig noise stops. The noise is also really loud in the cabin.


Does anyone know what the problem is?

The car is a '05 LE NC

Thanks in advance

Kayye
