Holden VE rattle library

[flyjoe180]

LOCATION - Sun glass holder
WHEN - Rougher roads again
REASON - No idea, even open and without sunglasses it still vibrates
FIX - Will let you know, possibly something under those little rubber bungs holding it to the roof

VE SS Ute '10
LOCATION - Rattle noise under car near passenger side like a metal tube inside another one (unable to determine if front or back due, but think front left)
WHEN - Over small bumps in the road. Unable to replicate issue, just happens all the time
REASON - F knows. Been back to holden 3 times. First time holden couldn't hear it. Second time metal bracket under tranmission had spaces inserted. 3rd time (yesterday) had left bonnet hinge adjusted as it 'may' have been hitting plenium. Also had pedders independant check done which returned nothing but split exhaust mount which I replaced.
FIX - Again, F knows. Have been advised D link bushes checked...

LOCATION -Driver door or seat
WHEN - Turning corners
REASON - Require lubrication somewhere
FIX - Was supose to have been greased so i'm told, but still there

If the above ever get resolved, i'll edit this post. Hopfully when I get coilover put in in the coming weeks, a decent suspension joint might determine the under body noise.

Highly recommend changing front brake pads with Ferodo Performance Brake Pads. Changed mine yesterday and rattle totally gone!!! Noticed Ferodo pads slightly larger backing plate than pads that i took out. Will solve many VE front end metalic rattles

Thanks for the tip, but my front end rattle went away after I binned the stock suspension with h&r coilovers

Well done glad it worked out.

Hi people, I don't usually reply to threads but I certainly spend a lot of time on here getting valuable info so thanks to all the people on this forum who ask and answer questions, I really appreciate. I have a
2011 ve ute, only a six but still nice..I had a persistent rattle in the front drivers side, like the front brake
Pad or panel, this was for months and it even went to Holden twice to be sorted, they could hear it but
Had no idea....I found it, my rattle anyway...i lifted my bonet and directly under the hinges on car there are some black plastic parts the hinges sit on, my passenger side has a sponge between this part to stop it rattling, now I looked on drivers side and noticed no sponge and the black plastic piece was very loose, I stuck some sponge in the same spot and have not had this rattle since....anyone who has a similar
noise take a look at those parts, it may help, sorry for long rant but cheers again for great forum.
