Check the brake cable that bends just in front of the rear passenger wheel in case its hitting against something.

ta bud will have a look , do u think it could be the strut ????

Will probably be very hard to pinpoint , but heard the back suspension on these are quite good and don`t give much bother.

I vaguely remember reading that most 407's have a rattle from rear compartment behind the seats, something due to something hiting something and that something needs more spot welds. Helpful, eh?
