United Kingdom 2007 Range Rover Vogue TDV8 Java Black
Found the source of the rattle from passenger side....

ever since i picked the car up there's been a quiet rattle from what i believed to be the glovebox or that general area but couldn't for the life of me find it.

So, whilst taking an audio recording of the FBH making funny noises to take to the dealers as proof i popped the bonnet and had went over to the battery area as that's where the FBH noise is coming from and to my horror i found this:

They replaced the battery when i went to pick it up cos it wouldn't start and guessing its been there since November!!! :shock:
