Replaced the boots last night. What a difference. Seriously. Reduced the offending noise a lot and made the entire ride much quieter

I'll lift it this weekend and check all the nooks and crannies I can find and hopefully get rid of it once and for all.

Hey guys, Just got myself an NA a month ago and already loving it. Coming from an Alfa 156 V6 it's nice to have a car I can work on in the driveway again! This particular MX5 has what I understand to be a fairly common and harmless noise.. You know the one. Sounds like someone shaking a can of grave...
