Rattling sound after installing exhaust muffler

[Laojiao]

Not sure whether you all will know the cause but after installing the muffler, i hear some rattling noises under my carriage (and ya ... i've checked there are no rattle snakes there too )

 

The rattle would only be apparent when i'm idling while still pressing my brakes but it'll be gone if i'm cruising or moving on the road.

 

Anyone can help?

Laojiao asking for help...

 

Go back to your installer lor.

Hi,

 

Your muffler is probably touching your bumper or bodykit, need to go back to installer to rectify the problem.

 

Cheers,

Should be installation problem...It might be hitting on something...

During idling, exhaust is usually vibrating....Maybe the vibration wakes up the rattle snake that is sleeping there...

auto car i assume or maybe an older car???

 

Bring it back to the installer to check all clearances as well as all heat shielding... the heatshields rattle like a biatch in heat if not on securely

Try to use hand to check for clearance when car is not on jack, esp when your ride is lower before. When jack up, installer may forget ride is lowered before and install in the mid range and might be rubbing your rear axle or the rear edge.

The rubber rings that hold/hang the tail pipe maybe be missing.
