does anyone have this problem? b/c i do, and it's annoying as hell.

it sounds like it's coming from the cat area - i figured it was the wire for the o2 sensor - so we wrapped a rubber hose and zipped tied the wire to the heatshield - we looked at the exhuast heat shields and there seems to be plenty of clearance.

anyone?

 

The best thing to do is to have someone rev your engine while you crawl around your car to see where the noise is coming from.

 

whats it sound like? also when does the rattle occur?

 

don't forget to video tape, sounds like something could go very wrong

 

we have enough stock rattles now we have to deal with aftermarket rattles!!

 

save the complaining for a real problem.

 

 

for lack of a better description - it sounds like a turkey.

literally. i'm not joking.



it's getting on my last nerve and it only happens at idle.

triz08 said he fixed his - but shoot - i never had a problem with rattling until now. go figure.

 

Might want to check for exhaust leak around the gasket area, perhaps re-torque all the hardware.

 

i was going to say check for exhaust leaks. One other thing could be th core of the cat could have ome undone i know its a longshot but no harm in suggestios right?

 

thanks. i had the shop check for exhuast leaks and everything looks ok.



this sucks.

 

wow that sucks, i dont know what i would do if my ride sounded like a turkey :dog:

 

haha reminds me of this:

I have the Comptech exhaust and have no rattles, except for the OEM rattles

 

Theres an area, somewhere near the resonator, that it touches up against. Just get wrench or something and push up the heatshield to make more cleareance. I had to snip off some a few inches off the corner of a side which fixed the rattling i believe. It is a really annoying sound, rattles loud too. Now i got my struts or something with my suspension/brakes making a lound clunk sound whenever i brake to a stop. Oh problems problems
