Been going off for a while now. Grinding metal sound from engine when accelerating. Seems to be more in low revs. Any ideas?

Yeah I'll take some tomorrow for you. I also have rusting with the rear sub frame and shocks. They all need replacing soon. I do a lot of motorway driving which are salted heavily so probably that caused it. All needs sanding down and re priming. Not sure if I'll respray or wrap after that though. T...

Cheers Bob,
