The rear of my 96-97 xantia is buzzing when the car ticks over, when unloaded, it seems to be coming from where the R clips holding the bits behind the sphere are held, any ideas hoiw to stop it?

The noise is a high freq rattling/ buzzing from either side at the back when there is not a lot of load in the car, I have traced it to the area behind the left and right spheres, around the the suspension units themselves where the clip secures them to the car, its like a metal on metal noise, its not a serious sounding noise just a little irritating, I will in the near future investigate properly but the weather hasnt been to good in uk lately(top half of me dry, bottom half soaking)
