bb56 Posted March 26, 2018 Report Share Posted March 26, 2018 (edited) I am trying to find the cause of an annoying rattle when driving above 50 mph. I found a bracket directly above the front metal bumper bolts between the radiator fan assembly and the headlamp assembly. When I put my hand in there from inside the hood facing forward, I reach into the space along side the headlamp and move forward toward the front of the car. When I reach the panel where the fan assembly is mounted, there is a square metal bracket that I can rattle. It has an identical mirrored version on the other side.In the picture attached, you can see the two bolts where the steel front bumper attaches.Ive looked at the repair manual for removing the steel bumper (not the cover) and removing the radiator but neither have illustrations of this bracket. It looks like there should be a screw in the center of it but there are no screw marks in the underlying hole.Can anyone tell me what this bracket is and if it is supposed to be loosely in there? I want to try to screw it in but both sides having no fastener may be a sign that it is not supposed to be fastened. I'm going crazy trying to find an illustration that shows it.Any help is appreciated.Thanks. Edited March 26, 2018 by bb56 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
