G'day folks!

I've discovered a DIY solution to fix this problem (albeit an odd one), after trying to get Ford to fix it for almost 3 years and the rattle getting worse, I finally had an epiphany of sorts and fixed it with a neodymium magnet. The magnet I used has a pull force of ~40kg, you just need to attach it to the underside of the steering lock housing. The magnet holds it's own weight but still slides around pretty easily as the housing is aluminium, so I used some Sikaflex 227 to perma-stick it. The rattle hasn't returned since I used this fix. Don't even ask how I thought of this, I don't even know.
