Hello,

I have a Mazda 3 BL 1.6i (so benzine motor) from 2009 with 230.000 km, in very good shape except for a metallic sound from the last 3 months. If I describe the sound I would say that sounds like a broken bearing from a shock absorber if you understand, but is not the case just the style of the sound.

I hear this sound in the first or second gear, when I easily drive straight in a line or when the car starts to move after a stop, all the way shuffled so I can't demonstrate or reproduce it in a service. If I accelerate the sound disappears.

Do you have any idea what to check or did you hear this sound from attach in the past?
