Noise from rear on uneven surface

I have only had my 07 RRS HSE for a couple of months but I can here a noise coming from the rear...it sounds like a loud rattle from the suspension/boot area.

I have checked the spare wheel and the wheel brace storage but nothing loose. I just wonder if it relates to an error message that appeared a few weeks ago relating to a sususpensionault, but this only lasted 1 day and not seen again. Or is it the exhaust?

It may be normal, as the load I notice it on has a lot of potholes and is a farm road. Hope its nothing.

Also it is nearly 3 years old (Jan 2010) is there anything I should get done under warrently before this time...I do live in France with a LHD so might be different to the UK recalles, but previous owner wasn't someone to look on websites regarding recalls.

rattles/knocking sounds on previous cars I've owned have normally occured due to worn suspension bushes.

The RRS has a known problem with the front anti roll bar bushes but I'm wondering whether you have this issue on the rear? Gone: RRS : HSE : TDv6 : 57 : Java Black : Ebony : 20"

I had the same problem and checked the spare wheel and tools. It turned out to be the rear anti roll bar bushes, which were replaced with the original type of bush under warranty (now an upgraded part) 12 months ago. Send it to your dealer. Gone - 2008 TDV8, Stornoway Grey, ebony, zabrano trim, TV, Tasmods, mudflaps.
