hey guys.

I have a rattle (when i ramp up the sub) from the middle of the car, underneath. A friend had a quick look and realised if he sqeezed the heatshield where the exhaust is it stopped, and said that it was vibrating against either the exhaust or the underbody (cant remember) all i know is its embarrasing.

Can anyone give me a hand as to hwat i should do? take it to an exhaust shop and get them to look at bending/removing/jamming something in there or should i just jack the car up and jam something to seperate it?


cheers,
Presti

how did ya go with it?

hmm yeah id be interested because i think thats where my noise is coming from, i was going to weld a bar onto it to something else at school...

Same rattle here, due to ze cannon. Will give it a bend soon and see how it goes

Had a similar problem which turned out to be the heat shield on the cat. The metal where one of the bolts clamps through had split so the bolt was doing nothing & the two halves of the heat shield were vibrating against each other. I just drilled another hole & bolted it up - problem solved.

I have the same problem with my canon, when cold i get a buzzing noise from exhaust somewhere, but only does it for the first 1 min say then its gone. must be a shield somewhere. pain in the but!!!

had a similar problem
turned out to be the rear heat sheild
bent it abit and the noise decreased abit, tho i dont know if its still there after getting a new muffler :doubt:
