It will be the inlet manifold that's rattling not the throttle body.

The rattle is usually caused because the power vis motor has failed. You will need to test this and if its faulty it can be repaired.

If the power vis isnt at fault then its a £500 bill for a new inlet manifold.

Check the oil level. I had a rattle which I thought was inlet manifolds and a big thanks to MikeHurley at the Nano who said check the oil. Low and behold my oil was very low and another big thank you to Brian for letting me pinch some of his oil and the rattle was gone... worth a check
