No to either of the above. As a clue, it was rattling around quite happily!2005, TDV6 S, Auto, 190k miles, owned from new, V8 Brake Upgrade, Nancom Evo, RLD protector, BAS EGR blanking & Remap, separate ATF cooler, changing all the fluids ahead of time.

Another clue. It only made a rattling sound whilst the car was moving, but no one would have heard it. If I drove fast enough, the rattle would ease.2005, TDV6 S, Auto, 190k miles, owned from new, V8 Brake Upgrade, Nancom Evo, RLD protector, BAS EGR blanking & Remap, separate ATF cooler, changing all the fluids ahead of time.

Spot on. When I rolled the flat tyre, I could hear it rattling around inside. It went clean through the tyre. I could see how it might get embedded, but to pass right through ...... Andy at AJS mentioned they have see a wiper arm inside a tyre
No prizes I'm afraid for a correct answer.2005, TDV6 S, Auto, 190k miles, owned from new, V8 Brake Upgrade, Nancom Evo, RLD protector, BAS EGR blanking & Remap, separate ATF cooler, changing all the fluids ahead of time.
