Yo.

I opened my window and heard an odd rattle.

Was coming from the left, either front or rear.

The odd thing.. is that it only happened whilst going over little bumps or rough roads.

It also stops completly if I apply the brakes or pull the handbrake slightly.

I thought this was a rear brakes issue, but there is nothing loose, pads are ok and greased.

Suspension all looks fine.

Anyone got any ideas what else it could be?
 
Brake Pads maybe? I'd suggest taking the wheel off and seeing if everything is tight. If you're confident to do so maybe even take the caliper off and put it back on to ensure everything is tightened correctly.
 
It's the Mazda 3 MPS

Has new suspension all round Inc top mounts, bearings and drop links front and back.

Also has recently new brakes all round.

I have had the rear wheels off, checked the pads, was some movement so I regressed them.
Still made the noise.

I checked drop links and all were secure.

Top mounts are done up tight and we're new genuine anyway.

Really confused with it.
