At the top on the engine where the bottom of the windscreen is. I can hear and not sure if it’s rattling scratching sort of sound metallic scratching sound. Not sure how to describe it when it’s idling. No warning signs on dash. Car seems to be running fine, but also noticed radiating heat not smoke from hood of car. Can you help please?

Good morning,

Hard to say from hear for the noise.

Is it possible for you to take a video and upload to this post so I hear what you hear?

That will help me guide you to the noise.
