I would say it's a connection somewhere but someone else might have a better idea.

I have that too.. if you find it let me know! I'm convinced it's something within the door but everything is all tight.

Is it more of a rattle or a clunk? I have a clunk but think that will go once the rear shocks are changed. rattles could be a heat shield, doubt it's exhaust. Check in the sapre wheel for the jack and make sure that securely located and not bouncing about in the cage. Check in the boot where the wheel brace is that it's secure and that there's no bits in there floating about.

stupid and easy one as sounds more like a bush but check your pollen filter. If mines lose it flaps and reverbs though body giving a thumping sound.
