Has this started recently and/or suddenly, or has it always been like that? If it started recently, has anyone put petrol in it? What car and engine is it?
Only seems to rattle like this in cold temperatures. No petrol has been anywhere near it.
It did have the head off about 2.5k miles ago and one recon injector was put in. It runs very well, no real issues, but it's that annoying sound it makes.
It could be a timing issue then, maybe the belt is one tooth out. However I think a lot of those Renault engines sound like the timing advance is being pushed to the limit so maybe it's "normal".

This has been suggested. I'll take it in for a tweak.
