Is your girlfriend/wife in the seat next to you when this happens?

Does it come and go with hard acceleration, braking and enthusiastic driving?

I have an idea of where the noise comes from.....

(it's probably the bushings on the motor getting old and knackered though).
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.
