Vibration Noise At Around 2000Rpm 1.8Tdci Focus 07(Facelift)

Hi All. I am new to this so be nice.

I have a 1.8 TDCI Focus 07 plate. I believe it is classed as a facelift model?

I bought the care second hand and it has an annoying rattle or vibration noise but only at around 200rpm and only when driving. I cannot get it to do it when the car is just in neutral.

It also doesn't do it until a few minutes into driving.

It has had all of the mechanics I took it to confused tho most of them think it is something within the dash. but none have been able to pin it down for certain.

It is really annoying and I'd like to know if anyone else has had the same problem or if anyone might have any ideas of how to remedy it?

Any comments or suggestions will be very welcome.

Thanks in advance.

    Hi.

    It could be the heat shielding around the exhaust or engine bay rattling with the engine vibration.
