  • Buzzing sound from exhaust.

    My exhaust is completely stock. Around last week or so whenever I start the car up, the exhaust makes this really annoying buzzing sound for a few minutes. What could this be?

      i think they should have a recall on the stock cats and replace them with some high-flow ones or something.. because the stock one sucks

              Not necessarily.... Catalytic converters are very tempermental and can go out at anytime without warning.

                Had a problem with buzzing from the electric gas pump on a 98 V6 bird. Nothing you can do, unless, you want to change it

                    Can anyone suggest a high flow CAT that works with the stock exhaust on a 97 3.8 camaro. I almost failed emmisions yesterday and I know my cat is gone cause my exhaust has a buzzing/rattling noise.

                      carsound cat seem to be pretty popular on here and should work with stock exhaust if you get the right size
