Default Rattle when driving

Don't know whether anyone else experienced this but engine got a bit noisy under load sounded a bit like exhaust blown at front. Turns out all it was due to were loose bolts on the join between exhaust manifold and engine block. Tightened em up and no noise. Garage told me this was not unknown and luckily he went straight to the problem and fixed it in 5 minds. Apparently it is more common with the 1.8 Turbo engines as the manifold is cast? He said he reckons many a hapless driver has ended up with a new exhaust or part exhaust through the mechanics or Kwik Fits ignorance.
