Thats a tough one. At first I thought it was a knock, then I convinced my self it was a rattle and now am not sure. I think there is something loose toward the top of the brake pedal but there again it could be on the other side of the bulkhead
its got me flummoxed
Still havin fun tho

Possible common options are actually brake pads rattling in the calipers and anti-roll bar bushes. Both can sound like they are in the footwell.

Who'd have thunk it. A few heavy stamps on the brakes and the knocking noise seems to have disappeared. will monitor the situation closely

Might be worth posting this as a new thread?

I'm off to see my 'beloved' Unipart 'stealer' lunctime armed with pictures and the Lotus parts manual but I'll guarantee they won't find it without a Rover part number, however I would love to be proved wrong

YCB100420 is the number I've got,
What I meant was that you'd have got more of a response if you'd posted it up as a new thread, as opposed to tagging it onto the end of an old one, that's all.

Shug!!!
If I fail to get a result lunchtime I'll post a new thread.
The wonky sender has been on my 'to do' list for yonks.
However the coolant level has suddenly taken a nose dive so while I am in amongst it with the spanners and the grazed knuckles I am gonna sort the sender at the same time, but thats only after reading the umpteen threads on related subjects
Thanks again
