  • strange rattle

    I have an annoying exhaust rattle with a strange characteristic. When I start my car when it's cold and start driving..it doesn't rattle at all. But once the car warms up, the rattle continuiously gets worse. I'm pretty sure it has to do with the exhaust, but I'm not positive. Any ideas?

      I had that too. My rattle was the exhaust's I-Pipe. There is a slide-connection on the exhaust behind the converter. Look between the s-bend and the setion that goes over the rearend housing...you'll see it! When my car heated up, it would rattle like crazy! I welded the living sh*t outta that connection, and I don't have that rattle anymore.

        Wierd I never had a problem with that, and I used to unhook and rehook that thing up everytime I went to the track.

        But it coudl be possible if it gets loose it will hit the little crosssmember thingy.
