There’s no rattle when I’m stationary, so yes. Sounds like another thing worth checking! Might see if i can record it happening in case that helps identify. Best description i can think of is like a stone/metal on a metal panel rather than anything heavy.

Thanks!

That is not what I asked!

Does the rattle stop if (a) you are moving, (b) you are rattling, and (c) you apply the brakes?

If so, it will be the brake bads. If not, it won't be the brake pads!

Given it’s not constant - I think the way to test that is rolling down a hill… assuming it will rattle; and then light pressure to the brakes to see if it stops?

Assuming this is a reasonable test... unfortunately no difference. I think next step is to start removing trim from the rear to ensure it's not something knocking/rubbing the body.

Local independent thinks this is overly sensitive ABS fwiw. + a slightly loose brake pedal. So I'm leaving as is for now
