Started hearing a jingle from the front drivers side last week, took the wheel off, had a good look around, i can't see anything loose.
This only occurs when decelerating, put the power on and the jingle goes...

Any ideas chaps and chapesses?

Your mobile phone? :lol:
Might be a sticking brake pad or pad shims needs some coppergrease....?
Do your pads have the low level bit in them that makes them squeal?

Wheel bearing??
I’ve known them to squeal on deceleration when on their way out.

I had the pads off at the weekend - and it's not them.
I answered my mobile - and it was Helga asking if i wanted another full body massage - so its not that.
Its deffo not a squeel, more of a jingle, sounds like something round rattling round a drive shaft maybe?

When my rear wheel bearing went I was getting intermittant jingly screechy noises

CV boot clip come adrift maybe?

Can you rock the engine much by hand? Might be an engine or G/B mount failure bringing something into contact with the chassis?

What about the exhaust support just by the black sump? Do you have an aftermarket exhaust?

Quite often the exhausts are "jubilee" clipped to this bracket...
