Hey everyone

Well I think I determine why my car is making all this noise whenever i drive and go over speedbumps. I think its downpipe not being tighten all the way. Well i looked under the car and i noticed the part the stock downpipe attaches to the transmission, well it looks like that screw is missing that secure the downpipe to the transmission. I think when I switched from my straight pipe back to the stock, the person that put it back on forgot this part.

So does anyone know what part number this bolt is? I think it has the #6 on the bolt. Also do you think by missing this bolt, it would cause my car to make rattling noise.
I hope this is the case cause its driving me mad finding the problem.

Thanks for any help in advance.!

Yes this could cause a rattling noise. The backet is probably hitting against the transmission case when the pipe vibrates or is moved by loading and unloading the suspension. You should beable to find this bolt at a subaru dealer. Just tell them where on the pipe it from. They have diagrams so you can point out the one you need.

 

12510250 is the part # for the bolt.
