S5 Rear Rattle

[audi58]

Hello,

Has anyone had a rattle coming from underneath the rear seat/bench before? It's driving me mad!

I've had the front seats and the rear bench out but still can't find it. Seems to be more noticeable around 2,000 RPM.

Any advice would be much appreciated.

Thanks

is it when you come off the throttle, or does it do it all the time?

Seems to happen all the time although particularly when accelerating at low RPM.

in that case thats different to the issue I had. When I came off the throttle it sounded like an exhaust clamp was loose and I had a kind of metal on metal sound. Turns out my propshaft bearing was knackered.

Oh, thanks for that. I'll have to get the exhaust clamps checked, just in case.
