Discovery 4, 2016 Metal Rattle Sound From Steering Wheel

Hello,

Getting a metallic rattling sound from the steering wheel when driving in lower speed on gravel or similar rough surface. Anyone familiar to this sound?

Here is a clip of the sound. https://streamable.com/np46u

If its a knocking you are hearing particularly under braking then its probably the front suspension arm bushes are on the way out.

Could be loose bottom UJ or its fixings to the steering column. Had similar noise on my first D3 in 2005.

I have watchedd your vid and I think that might be loose counter weight plate under your air bag as per picture

it is attached to base of the wheel with 4 self tapping torx screws as visible and I have to say my were loose before I have swapped the wheel to wooden one.



but might be wrong Wink

Greg you were right, loose screws behind the airbag exactly as you described it. Thumbs Up

Sorry, can't find the video. I bet it's the same. Not much else that could rattle in the area behind the air bag. Grzesiul solution worked and it's not back yet!
