stock exhaust tip

has anybodies tip come loose? I can swirl it around 360 degrees. The bolt is all rusted so i can't take it out and rescrew it back on so what i do is i just twist that thing in and somehow it tights up.

On another note, does anybodies muffler rattle? I think its hitting the heat shield. after i drive it for a little while, the rattle goes away. is there a fix for this?

havent had that happen yet. If it doesnt go back in tight, I'd get a new muffler.

:shakehead Nope... you might need to either
with mike...
1. Get a new muffler if its rusted all the way...
2. Get a new tip if thats the only thing wrong...

On another note... that only happened to me when i had my subwoofers in the trunk... the only thing i found rattling was the heat sheild... and the license plate... but that hasn't happened since i took them out... check the rubber things holding the muffler in place... mine moved after i got my car back from the shop... found out that it came loose from the little hooks...

My tip was rusted and had some loose screws, and everytime I started the car it sounded like it was farting.LOL

I got it replaced with new tips, screws, and muffer from Acura and it sounds much better.
