Re: knock knock

it's coming from the rear on the passenger side. i thought at first it might be the spare, but it's tight. then i thought it could be the back wheel being loose, so i checked the lugnuts and they're tightened down. it's a 2000 camaro 5 speed (if it helps)

Re: knock knock

Sounds like your I-pipe banging the body above the axle. Mine used to do this because I added heavy exhuast tips. I used some heavy gauge wire to limit the movement of the hanger.

I had an exhaust hanger break on one of my tips, letting all 7ish feet of exhaust tubing swing virtually freely, creating the same phenomenon that you were describing. Check the hangers in the rear

Re: knock knock

My exhaust hangers on my 02 camaro are horrible so I'm told. And I believe it because when I go around a turn, usually a left turn I hear the tailpipes bangin the body in the right rear.
