I have a Land Rover Discovery 1990 200TDi

The other week, having driven over some fine gravel, I noticed a rattling which hasn't gone away in the same way various other noises tend to do!

The rattle:

- Sounds like something is being dragged along underneath (I have checked this!).

- Only happens when she's moving.

- Happens regardless of gear selected or revs, but gets louder as she speeds up.

- Appears to be coming from the middle of the underside, possibly over towards the passenger's/left hand side.

Any ideas what the problem might be? Any and all theories and experiences gratefully received.

Cheers, folks

Check the heat shield above the muffler. It may have come loose and is resting on the muffler.
