bad rattling
when my car is started and running it rattles like you wouldnt believe. sounds like its coming from under the hood. i check the heat shields and they seem to be alright. any ideas what this could be.

maybe the exhaust is loose. my best friend like to drive my car and we live in a town that the road are in really bad shape and keeps hittying the exhaust on speed bumps and pot holes. im running regular. sounds like the rattling might be coming from the alternator or tentioner pully. some where around that area. i know that its not coming from inside the engine.

Some times the cat converters will break apart internaly and cause a rattling noise i had the same thing happen to me after for replaced mine under a recall then they gave me another set try to tap on the cats with a rubber mallet and see if they make noise
