Hi,[?]
I've got a '04 berlingo (new)....
On startup(high tickover),about 1800rpm and just above 3000rpm there is a very very ominous noise/vibration/resonance.....
Its mostly comming from the exhaust, 'cause if i get someone to put their foot at the rear of the exhaust,it gets rid of it.... It is caused by the engine vibrating though.... the exhaust is ridgidly bolted to the motor and acts as an amplifier in this case!!!!
Again, im goin mad here...... any info would be really really apreciated >>>>> Kev....[?][V]

Ive checked eveything underneath, nothing is rubbing or touching.... I loosened the exhaust at the engine (flange with two studs) to a point where it was begining to blow out, this stopped the vibration...
Is there a gasket here? or would inserting one help?
Or is there something causing access vibration, like a pulley??? (belts seem to be ok).............

cheers for the suggs lads...i will look into them asap... even though I think its not going to be easy solve this one....... Its already been back to the dealer, they replaced part of the exhaust and didnt tell me what they did.... It didnt make any difference anyway....
The exhaust is making the noise its self, like a low pitched drone that gets you in the ear...( i know that sounds daft) kev....
