Saucepan Like Noise

[DazzerJ97]

Hello All,

I'm new here so please be gentle, so I have a Passat (Shock) B6 2.0TDI 2008.

Whilst she drives lovely, and the suspension feels normal. She's decided to develop a noise recently, upon going over rough terrain I can here what sounds like saucepans crashing and banging together (No I do not have a saucepan set in the boot) now from what I can see the suspension components look fine, and as mentioned I don't feel a difference in the suspension and also the handling. I have a theory MAYBE it could be an exhaust hanger has packed it's self in.

However, before I become a contortionist I'd like to know if there is a typical "common fault" that would perhaps cause this?
