RATTLING EXHAUST

Recommended Posts

i have a 95 vr6 with a scorpion cat back system when i put i foot down a get a rattle from the exhaust for a bit then it stops as i ease off then rattles a bit more it doesnt do it when idling or holding revs could it be a heat shield, baffles in the rear box or (i hope not) the cat breaking up any ideas also any ideas as to how much a cat is for a vr6 and where i can get one (please dont say VW dealership)

Most likely the Cat Heatsheild, mine was doing it at about 2500 rpm, have a look underneath while someone revs it...

 

If it is that either cut it off or use a large Jubilee clip 8)

Could be the warm air intake for the air filter from the manifold. Mine has corroded off and just hangs around rattling! Probably should sort that out really!

Mine rattles around that rpm, but only when the engine is under braking... I'll get under there and have a look at some point...
