Hi all,
Recently ran my EP3 low on oil (Like a numpty!), realised it was low when VTEC was not kicking in properly and filled it up soon afterwards. Fast forward to today and noticed a rattle noise when accelerating, extremely noticeable in 5th around the 3000-4000 rev range doing over 40mph. I can hear it in other gears but not as noticeable and tends to go away when the revs are higher. I idled the engine and the sound is nowhere to be heard, also ran the revs up to around 3000 out of gear and once again no sound. Its barely noticeable and were it not for me deciding to turn of the radio one morning I probably wouldn't have noticed it.
Any help would be appreciated!
Cheers
