My Tiptronic GR makes a rattle in each gear everytime it goes from between 2600rpm - 2800rpm. It's all normal before n after those points n it only happens when the cars moving. was wondering if anyone has any clues about what the problem might b

Rattle as in noise or vibration/shaking?

Have you tried to get the error codes from the ECU, this might help to better understand the problem.

Well...Grant.....everytime he pushes the Go Pedal the little men inside the engine fight each other and power the car.

It's quite obvious.

Make sure its not the bonnet "holder-upperer" cos it is a problem with
FTO's that it rattles, mine does too. There is a simple fix. Just glu some rubber on the underside of the bonnet that sits on top of the "holder-upperer" and see if that does the trick.

Cheers

rattle as in a noise coming from somewhere from the engine. im pretty sure its not the bonnet coz it doesnt sound like it. it sounds like 2 things are hitting eachother. its not obvious that its there but when your the one driving u notice it. someone said it was the engine injecting fluid while i was running but i doubt it'd make a sound like tht.
