    Guys, my car (360 modena coupe) makes random tapping sounds (from the back I believe) while doing about 70mph + on the highway... the sound only happens when cars is on rougher pavement

    It sounds like something is loose but I've checked the glove compartments, seats & seat belt brackets and I can't find the cause...

    Any idea would help!

    Regards,
    Jimmy

    Is this the same issue you had after the major?

    no, that was on my red 360, the tapping if from the engine and it does up and down with the RPM, it was fixed by FOC, it appears to be dusts in one of the intake

    this tapping on my yellow 360 sounds like something tapping against eachother while the car goes through rough surfaces, i'm 99.9% sure this is a non-engine issue

    any thoughts on this one?
