here goes again, i was driving down the county road at 80km/h, and can hear this rattle/ ticking from the rear portion of the engine bay, and it only happens when i am driving at that speed.....if there was a transmission right there i would think it was the tranny, but as we all know it is front wheel drive, any ideas might be helpful, and i will try my best to troubleshoot...and let you all know if i get any ideas myself
thxx everyone

Possibly loose/rusty head shield on the exhaust is setting up a sympathetic vibration at that rpm.
If so, just use a big stainless hose clamp wrapped around the offending item to stifle the rattle. If it looks like the item is really loose and about to come off, it might be welded or replaced at a muffler shop.
