Whenever I shut any of the doors, there can be heard a rattle coming from the front end area of the car.

Car has almost 99,000 miles.

Has anyone heard this type of rattle and if not, any ideas of what it might be?

Thanks

Not really sure but when I close my boot i hear something rolling around... sounds like a loose screw or something.

Rattles on a high milage/old car could be anything...

I had something similar happen at the grocery store yesterday. I just shut the trunk (or boot) and heard something rolling around. I opened up the trunk again and opened up the toolkit in the lid and one of the wrenches was loose. Easy fix!

    I've been slowly gathering all of the documentation of maintenance into a binder and decided I'd like a good way to keep track of where common maintenance items were at. I know carfax will keep track if you get your vehicle serviced at the dealer, but I decided to set something up in Excel...

    On my 3rd set of front rotors within 6k miles and I still can not fix the brake shimmy, same thing every time.

    So with all the time I spend wasting on bring a trailer, ebay, etc. I’m having a hard time putting miles on my 01 LB M5... I’m at 77k and the car is mint. Do you think I’m in that high value zone or should I just put another 15k on the car and enjoy it? I’ve owned the car for 17 years and only...
