rattling/vibrating noise

I have recently noticed a vibrating/rattling noise which seems to be coming from underneath standard intercooler/where the throttle bodies are etc. can be heard at low revs when setting off, presume when vibrating is highest. At first i thought it was a tapping soubd from the engine but local garage ruled that out. Anyone any ideas or had same problem?

Check for loose heat shields, brackets, intercooler cover, even the intercooler itself etc.

I had the same problem with mine when i had the standard top mount. Turned out one of the little screws that hold the spark plug cover down had come loose and it was rattling against the bottom of the IC. Only ever did it at low revs.!

Whip the IC and have a look :)
