Jobs on the Jimny I wished I had never started.

A few months ago in a moment of madness I decided to sort out the odd rattle my Jimny had. I've done really well, my son thinks it's silent compared to his modern Corsa (is that an actual endorsement?). However I can now hear a hollow "tap" that occurs randomly which has eluded all attempts to locate so far. 
I guess it's been there all along, but is now the prominent "quiet" rattle that my OCD hearing has latched onto.
​​​​It's starting to consume me, every journey even with the stereo on loud I can hear it!
Ever started something on your Jimny you have regretted?

As soon as the wife stops rolling her eyes I plan a Journey in the back with my stethoscope

I get where you are coming from. I have got Dreadnaught quiet finally and it's so pleasant, right up to putting my toolbox in in a morning, that rattles like mad depending how and what it's loaded with but I don't mind that so much because I know what is making the noise, though its better when it is quiet. Unidentified noise on the other hand is hateful. Good luck with the search.
