Hey guys,

So I was cleaning my tips, and I've noticed that my muffler on the driver side is making rattling noise...like a fast light drumming noise...

any ideas??

 

I searched google, and I come up with an explanation that drumming is there to reduce the muffler sound to low-frequency thus preventing noise?

huh? the drumming is light, and only I hear it when standing right by the left muffler...

someone please chime in

 

anyone??? come on, go out to your beautiful TLs, and listen to your mufflers, see if there is any light drumming noise.

thanx in advance

 

I don't have a type S but the other day I was giving my car a much needed tune up and I randomly checked the mufflers to see what was goin on down there and I heard the drumming too...the only thing I could see wrong was a small crack. So now that just gives me an excuse to go find some magnaflows

 

No such noise coming from my exhaust. I wonder if your muffler baffles are starting to rust out inside?

 

My friend Bread A-spec and I have a 03 TL-S A-spec and we are on the same boat as U....

I really wonder what causes that.

That drumming sound pisses me off.

I have to rev it up to about 3000 rpm in Park or Neutral to get rid of that sound temperarily, but it does come back after a while.

 

i got the same thing, driver side, and up front by the driver, goes away after, but be4 it was bad, i could hear it while driving, wit windows down and no music, now at night when i drive i hear nothing, so i duno
