that takes you directly to the PB.com homepage BTW.

and if you have the exhaust disassembled it's probably a heat-sheild somewhere rattiling to all hell.

how many miles on the car? could be a broken up converter. the crap will rattle inside of it. seen it happen to my boss' avalanche when it only had 25K on it. plus there was an extended warranty thing on the conveters i believe. may want to check that.

Loose heat shields or loose O2 sensors?

**** well idk why the link isnt working maybe a mod removed it or something cuz the one in the external engine section is so check that one out I guess. Im pretty sure its nothing rattling as the sound is coming out from the end of my y pipe and I had my buddy rev it up while I was holding the pipe and it was still doing it. Also im not positive but the car didn't do it when I had the full exhaust on. im thinking maybe its just normal when you run an open exhaust?

The link has been truncated by the fourm's scripts. Post the link in a way that the forum won't try to alter it.

Put it in a picture and attach? Crappy situation.
