Exhaust Squeaks? Pacesetter LTs, TSP ORY, Magnaflow cat-back. I have motor mount inserts.
Lately, my car has been driving me NUTS with this "squeaking" sound. It turns out, it's my exhaust tips, ONLY when the car is warmed up. I hear it at idle, and it gets worse with bumps, turns, etc.
I greased EVERYTHING I could find under my car, hell even the diff cover (kidding) but still the sound remains. All the hangers (metal) got greased, the rubber ones are brand new, and I greased everything I could think of.
It still SQUEAKS and I don't know what else to do.
I just confirmed that it's still the tips, because when parked I tap the tips with my foot and it goes away. As soon as I take my foot off, it comes back. I can even re-create the sound for short while with the car off. But once it's cooled down, it goes away.
What does ANYONE suggest for me? This is embarrassing, worse than driving a fart-can Honda embarrassing.

I cannot spin the tips/tail pipes with my hand, they move the whole exhaust system up to the Y-Pipe. Everything is tight... I'm going to try and adjust how deep the tail-pipes are clamped into the muffler. Maybe that will help?
