exhaust
« on: 08 April 2015, 22:01:40 »
Every so often it sounds like my exhaust is rattling/resonating normaly when I come to a stop. Pull away again and it stops. It sounds like its coming from the back box . An ideas please.

Heat shield? Sometimes the heat shields on the cats rattle.


I thought the exhaust had been done on yours?

Check the clamps into the back box, I had same issue. Clamps had worked loose on the pipes into the box, they could wiggle about.

Nipped them up tighter with ratchet spanner, all good now.

Back box was sleeved last October so suspect it is something just loose.
