Strange clunk/rattle

[Tomo9700]

Hi all, had the 197 just over a week now. First impressions are good but its got the weirdest clunk and rattle as im taking up drive in either first or reverse, when i change gear or let off the throttle. The only reason its weird is because it all disappears after a few miles once the cars warmed up and such. Does anyone have any pointers/ideas before i put it on the ramp tomorrow? Cheers.

Exhaust knocking on something perhaps?

Could be the Upper Engine Mount Torque Arm or the exhaust heatshield.

It kind of feels like its coming from the front right. Ive had the bottom swivels changed on either side so it cant be them top ones were ok. I just cant wrap my head around why it disappears once warm, it only does it from cold?

Use a silicon spray and spray the mount. It might help at first, just to locate the rattle.
