Default Please help rattles up front 1998 1.8T FWD 5spd ====>

My car had rattles (like loose metal washers) when going over bumps on both front wheels. Dealer did my brakes at 49K and the rattles went away ! Now I had Bilstein shocks installed (non-dealer) at 59K and the same rattle came back.
Any ideas ?

Default The screws that hold the belly pan on sometime don't get tightened all the way

And cause that noise

Do you mean the "splash-guard" underneath ?
