I have a strang rattle when I'm Idling in gear. When I put the car in neutral the rattle goes away. I'm checking tomorrow to see its b.c my headers are loose. Does anyone have a clue of whats causing the rattle??? Thank you very much.

check your tailpipe mounts (the brackets that hold your tailpipes to the car)
my screw worked loose and took me a week to find it -
The rattle sounds like its coming from infront of me and I can feel it through the gas pedal at around 1500 RPM. Could it be the place that put my headers on F***ed up???Ben<br /><br />1995 White/Black 3.4L<br />As far away from stock as possible<br /><a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/member_pages/view_page.pl?page_id=288292\" target=\"_blank\">My Site!!!</a><br /><a href=\"http://www.redlinevsix.com\" target=\"_blank\">RedLineV6</a><br />Rebuild and 3.4 T70 Turbo is complete<br />Details to come....Comment

i had this problem too. the heat shield on my cat was rattling away & was hitting the floor above it, so i could feel it a bit. (on & off) i just tore the shield off. that's with an aftermarket cat tho...my stock cat didn't have a shield

Well thats weird, bc I am getting that same strange vibration and rattle when I put my car in gear and I have a stock cat. Does that mean my heatsheild is ****ed up too? I also have another problem when I accelerate I can hear this hissing noise maybe from the exhaust?Comment

If you hear a hissing noise, it might be that your headers are leaking and you might need to have them welded.1997 Camaro RS A4 <br />3.08 Rear<br /><a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/470169\" target=\"_blank\">http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/470169</a><p>Mods:<br />SLP Cold Air Intake<br />Flowmaster 80 Series Muffler <br />MSD Ignition Coils<p>Soon to be installed:<br />3.42 Gears<br />MSD Plug WiresComment

guys i had the EXACT same problem, the rattling while in gear, well its only gonna get worse. Its the cat. I just got a new one when Installed my headers and everythings fine now. You'd beter take action quick cause eventually the cat insides will clog your exhaust.Comment

I bet the flanges didn't seal well....I had this problem too...the pacesetter bolts were too long....just take a couple extra washers and put them on each bolt....that fixed it for me.

Ultralites are nearly 25% lighter than the stock 1.6 rockers and 8% lighter than the SLP aluminum...02-07-2020, 10:30 PM
