Goes away after a while. 6cylinder petrol 105 series, it's a tinny little rattle.

I have grabbed the A/C compressor pulley and the clutch is quite loose. It doesn't stop it from driving though or air con from working

But unsure if it is that. Any ideas? It's just a tinny rattle that gets slightly louder as the accelerator is applied.

Cheers.
 
I have the same thing on my 98’ LC, only owned it about a month seems like mine is coming from the passenger side rear portion of the vehicle.
Yeah it's a little loud at times which has me curious to fix it. I really haven't gotten out of the car and looked underneath.
Needs someone pushing down the accelerator and I don't have anyone around who can look only young kids and the missus.
I have a mechanic mate who could look at it. Next time he takes it I'll get him to have a look, it's got me curious.

It's nothing like a main belt or anything. Only pulley in that area loose is the A/C Compressor.
 
exhaust or muffler ernie
Could definitely be that, I've gone over some solid corrugations recently which actually took out the original alternator.

Maybe something loose
