  • vibration from rear passenger side...at times

    Ok, I have no idea what is causing this. SOMETIMES (mostly just after I've started the car and first started moving) when I hit 1000 rpm, there's a vibration from the rear passenger side. It sounds like it's coming either from the hatch area or rear quarter panel. If it matters, I have a Borla cat-back. It makes this noise no matter what plate I have in. As I was typing this, I remembered being hit in the rear quarter panel about a week after getting my car. I had it fixed, so I don't think that has anything to do with it. I don't know what this is but I want it fixed - it's hard looking cool leaving a parking lot when there's a loud buzzing coming from the back of your car :( .

    You sure it is not an exhaust rattle? I know my car has a rattle vibration coming from the same side, under same circumstances. Seems to go away when the engine warms and everything runs smoother. Seems to be the loudest when you do not let the engine warm up and put it in gear.

      so is there anyway to make this go away other than to just let it warm up first?
