Big End Bearing noise - D-Sport Facelift

Just as a precaution, put your stethoscope on the cats. My son bought a 3.0ltr with what sounded like a death rattle from the front of the engine and I had such faith  in the longlivity of the 3.0ltr that we looked elsewhere and found some baffles had come loose in one of the cats. Just a thought, worth a listen. I know yours isn't a 3.0ltr but it has cats

Many thanks Henry,
I have just ordered an engine stethoscope to check this... here's hoping.
