A squeak from the tray, tyre hum and a cabin panel buzzing at one engine speed all get called a rattle. For a 79 Series build diary, how did you describe the noise before changing anything?

The road surface belongs in those notes. If it goes quiet the instant you roll onto smooth seal, I’d want to know that before reading a shopping list.
