broke something

mmvi · October 22nd, 2007, 05:46 PM

I have flowmaster 40 dual exhaust with no connectors (2.5") and recently, there's been some nice rattling noise under the drivers side seat, underneath the car from 2k rpms and lower (from what i noticed). Possibly a cat or two, or the muffler? i'm not sure, anyone know which one is most likely to go first?

you may have a exaust leak
but im not shure can u try and describre th enoise on mor detale does it acutaly sound like it is hiting somthing out what

the exhaust is barely a year old, and when we did it, we welded the pipes together, in my opinion it sound like a rattling sound... its really hard to describe it... the pipes arent hitting, and its annoying.

does it sound cort of like a fat pipe on a honda

welds break. even after a year. it could be an exhaust leak if it is a clicking sound that gets louder as you accelerate slowly. or your hanger(s) might be loose. or it could even be suspension related. does it only happen as you accelerate or hit the gas? or does it make the noise when you coast down hills?

mostly when i start the car, and it idles, then when i accelerate a bit, i dont hear it after 2k or so though

look and see if the cat covers are all welded up, or the welds are all still connected... check the hangers too
