Faulty new rail set?

Hello,
For about 10 days I used the new rails and I must admit they are very quiet.
Since this week end I noticed a lot of noise coming from the Y axis.

On the video below, I am moving the rails and you can hear a string vibrating noise about mid way.
I checked screwed on the platform and on the rails holders. All good there…

Do I have a rails faulty set?
The rail covers looks not loose either. Listening carefully, it seems to be coming from inside the rail.

Thanks

It’s always difficult to judge this on a video. My first impression was resonance on the rail covers.
Do you also have the sound when you hold your finger on the railcover? (that should dampen the vibration to not have that sound if it are indeed the railcovers)

Hi,

I have the exact same sounds with my rails. Do you found a solution what it was?

Thanks

Did unscrew and screw everything again.
Much better but not perfect.
