My car rattles for 5 seconds then stops and rattles again over and over? When I push the clutch in, it stops. Anyone tell me what it is?

It’s a 2010 stock fg. Nothing aftermarket. Also makes Loud knocks when engaging the clutch and changing gears

This is what I was getting to in your other thread.

There is no way that somebody does valve springs and head studs and nothing else, as their first stage of mods.

Either it has stock valve springs and studs; or more likely, it's had a fair amount of mods done including springs and studs, then old mate has returned everything else to stock to sell it, which leaves a lot of unknowns and potential issues. 

I say potential - could be fine, but start changing parts and upgrading power and there is a lot more scope for pain, and a lot more questions to be asked/answered. 

Back to topic, all the suggestions arronm made could apply. 

It may have a twin plate clutch, or a ceramic plated clutch, these often have a rattle.

I would start by hitting up old mate with some hard questions.

Yeah I thought it was a bit strange as well. Just having springs and studs. How can I find out which clutch I have? Who can tell me. He didn’t mention the clutch, I just thought it was stock
