Hi everyone, yesterday evening this odd rattle had developed while driving on the highway... I got around to investigating today, and I have had no luck with everything I have tried. First I thought it was the typically belly pan cover... So I went ahead and removed it, but noise was still present. Then I found some other loose trim around the fenders which was making noise, so I removed that but the rattle was still present...then by pure chance, I noticed the front suspension fork bolt and nut on the left side was completely loose! I have never seen that before and I can't understand how it happened, as I never touched the suspension since I got this car, and it looks original... So I tightend that bolt and nut to specs (with intention to replace it with a new one this week) but, the rattle is still there! I'm so perplexed, I don't know where else to look. It only happens at highway speeds, and what's ironic, after every investigation, I drove the exact same route. I went south on the highway, then made a u turn when the highway ended, and went back north on the highway, and that's when the noise reappeared... Always going north, never south... It also only happens if I'm going straight or slightly left, if I pull the wheel to the right just a little, the rattle goes away. I have posted 3 videos below, 2 of the rattle noise and 1 of that loose bolt and nut that I found
The only thing that I've done recently is the front pads, rotors and calipers... I did this 2 days ago and didn't have this rattle until last night... I also did the rear rotors and pads yesterday. I did everything by the book and everything is seated properly... What could it be?
