Good noise bad noise

[captint]

Ok, so my JWT PC was installed by my myself and the man mavis, sounds great with the Kinetix Cats. My problem is now something is vibrating when I go over 5000 revs ( which is more often than not). Its coming from the boot, quite annoying, not my axle's clicking as they are being done on monday, it's a real high pitched buzzing vibration, and no I haven't been shopping at Ann summers

Can't see any relation with the pop charger causing such a weird noise... Anymore clues??? How's she ticking over???

[H5]

Unrelated to the JWT Popcharger, but boot catch?

[captint]

Ticking over fine, no engine problems, oil's fine, its something internally behind me, not in me it'self, but in the car, perhaps the rear brace

[Liam's Z]

Radio on or off????

 

It's not the noisy amp thing is it????

[captint]

Radio off, it has do be something loose of something rattling around?

you said a "high pitched buzzing vibration"... try removing things from the boot including the mini tonneau

[captint]

Is the mini Tonneau the small flap under the window

Nice one Liam, I think thats the burstard, have you any Blue Peter hints how to stop it

Undo the 2 retaining lugs either side, it comes straight off.

 

Take it for a spin and make sure it's that first...

 

Not sure off a cure, let me know if you find one

Does your boot open and close properly???

 

Possibly do that penny thing with the struts, may also help

[Guest prescience]

I would say there are 4 possibilities for this noise

 

1. As mentioned above and you try fixing by applying a small amount of grease to the locating lugs

 

2. The top of the rear strut brace. Remove all the trim (pull sensibly but firmly to remove), and you will a satin liner underneath, lift that up and you should see a locating lug in the centre - cut it off, it serves no purpose

 

3. The top of the rear strut brace. Remove all the trim (pull sensibly but firmly to remove), pack in some additional felt, or wadding and replace

 

4. The manual boot release just below the rear strut brace, you'll just need to see why this is buzzing (if it is) and adjust

Great, good advice as usual chaps, there goes my Saturday!!

[Stew]

Just think of all the fun you're going to have blasting about trying to get it to rattle!

[captint]

True, plus with my JWT PC it sounds awesome now, I am just waiting for the performance gain to drop off, it really does feel faster

[captint]

Problem sorted I hope, I took the silver fitting off of the rear strut brace, and pulled out the filling, took out the node thingy and packed it with felt. It seems to have gone, so cheers for the advice.
