Re: funny ratteling noise coming from the engine

Right after futher inspection I have noticed that it doesnt rattle when I press the clutch. So does that mean that it is the flywheel like mentioned earlier. If so I was going to drive it to Holland in a months time would this be safe. Does it mean it is ok to drive but is loud at idle?

Well there was no fault code on the dash. But when I drove it back home from work it was fine again. Would it be the EGR valve I was told that it could need cleaning. What is this thing and where is it?
