Fixed a rattle in the engine bay...
FYI
Ive noticed my coolant bottle rattles. I don't think I was able to hear it in the cabin but it was noticable outside the car. If you look at the bottle, it bolts at the top but the bottom tube part just sits in a brace. That area wasn't snug so I took some thick fabric tape and wrapped it around the bottle. Now it is tight and doesn't move.
I do notice that I can move my radiator back and forth also. Only a small amount, less than a quater inch. Is this normal?

I just noticed that my radiator has a little play in it too. Initially, I panicked. WTF? Then, calming myself down, I searched and found this thread. Thanks Tireguy and Tony, disaster averted.
And to you nOObs, searching threads WORKS!!!!
