prolly just a bush,if its a tinny rattle it may be the exhaust tapping the axle/heatsheild

If its more of a clunk it may be the bush,and uve said ur mate looked at it and thought the strut was hitting the arch? did he fix it?

snapped damper,possible but hope it isnt

and there may be more things

some times when the baffels get hot they they rattle, is the pop like a backfire? put your hand over the tailpipe and try to hear for leaks.

is there any black soot on the exhaust near the joints? if so that is where the leak is? have you had any high revving latley as this would make the baffels become loose
