Default Weird Rattle?!

Hey I have a 2005 manual Camo xB. Had it for about a week now and really love it. But just recently, almost everytime I come to a stop and have the brake pressed I get a loud rattle which cannot be from engine vibrations cause once I engage the clutch and get going it goes away. It never happens while I'm driving. Anyone else have this and solve it? I can definatly live with it, but just wondering if its not just my car. Thanks.

OMG, i hear the same noice too and in the same place. Although, at some times when i'm stopped the noice is not there or its not as loud. Yeah, i've been wondering about the same thing too.

If you guys did a search ( not busting ***** or anything ) for RATTLE, you may have found your answer.

This topic was brought up about 3 months ago, with many replies. Turns out that if you raise the bumpers on the front of the car that sit directly under the hood, it will stop your rattle. Be prepared to raise them a couple of times to get the rattle to go away.

Yeah, i guess they are still shipping them very tight enroute to the states. Go to the dealer if you have the time.
