Rattling noises? I only have 200 miles on my baby and I picked it up 3 days ago. Now I here rattling noises. Seems like its comming from the passengers side under the car. Is that the cats? Sounds like metal rattling. Also when I accelerate I here noises that sounds like a drill at the dentists. Is that the induction? Let me know if these are normal.
Thanks in advance,

Re: Rattling noises? There are heats shields which are thin pieces of metal mounted to the body (above the cats) which are only loosely secured. I would be willing to bet that these are your source of the rattling noise. Get the car in the air and remove them, it'll only take a few minutes (a couple small bolts, one shield on each side of the y-pipe) and you don't need them anyway.
