Irksome 156 transmission

Going through 1900-2100rpm, my transmission goes a ring-a-ting-ting.
Any ideas?

perhaps the metal sheet protection under the engine, mine does sometime a
"zinnnnng-ziiiiiiing" sound as it is damaged at 1500 or 2000 rpm.

Mine does exactly the same thing. Its fine below 1500, but when
accelerating from 1500 to 2500 something is making a rattling noise. If i
accelerate hard between 1500 and 2500 then it doesnt happen - only when
driving slowly ( best to drive hard then i suppose!)

Heat shield of your exhaust?

That's about it. I think whatever is reaching it's harmonic frequency
hence the noise.

Speaking of hit-plates, I'd like to have a look at mine 18 months on.
Perhaps I shouldn't? Maybe these things are best left ignored? ;-)
