Noise/Rattle from Rear of Car
Started a new thread of this to not get it confused in with my 500 mile update. Had suddenly been hearing a rattle/noise from the back of the vehicle. Not horrendous, but certainly not normal. It was a clicking/rattle sound when I was going slow on turns and over rough surfaces. Took it in to the dealer and asked. They heard immediately and kept it overnight.
Called me back today and verified it is not an interior or rear door issue as per the initial thoughts. Per the dealer, it is an issue with the rear suspension coil rubber isolator which is allowing the coil spring to rub on the stopper creating the noise. Jaguar is aware of this, there is a service bulletin that went to the dealers with no repair actions to be undertaken. The engineers are aware of the concern and no actions to be done until a fix is determined. It is safe to drive but the noise will continue until they get back to me. Big apologies, they are very sorry...:crying:
Wanted to keep you all updated. I picked it up again today (and loved the looks, sound and drive as always). Will keep everyone posted of when they get back to me regarding a fix.
As an aside, they gave me a LR2 as a loaner car. What a piece vs the F-Pace. Just my opinion (in case anyone has one...)
