so im drivin home from SF this afternoon
i noticed 1st and 2nd gear sort of rattle a bit but this goes away after drivin a bit

i hvae no problems on the freeway (btw, hi to all those subies who waved at me)

i get home and turn off the car, this noise comes from the engine/underneath me, exactly like knocking/rattling noise

does it only when i turn the car off and on, almost like something is bumping against something, but it seems like it could be worse than that
help me please

no cel's or anything

 

Did you check to make sure your exhaust hasn't broken a mounting bracket?

 

ok
so i went to show my mom's b/f the noise

it totally went away... well almost totally, its SLIGHTLY there when it turns off now

everything else sounds normal... cept for now i hear some weird click underneath and ni front of me when i step on the gas

 

help?
seems worse when the car is warm

 

I noticed a click sometimes, it seems to come from the front driver's side wheel well but only when I'm romping on the gas. Unfortunately I have no fixes because I can't make it do it consistently enough to go see a technician.

 

Check the heatshield where the muffler connects at. Some how my heatshield was all loose and rattling.

 

ditto check the heatshield that thing gets loose sometimes.

 

i don't have any heat shields there
only heat shield i have is the one that covors the turbo
i have helix up and down pipe with apexi n1 catback
no stock exhaust here

 

chaning the oil right now b/c it was below the E

i noticed that heat shield, enxt to the exhaust manifold is just sitting there, not a single screw holding it in place
hopefully this is it

does the engine shake enough to move this thing back and forth?

 

tee-hee.

 

that was the prob
now i need soem bolts to put it back on, but its off until then

btw
have i snowboarded with you?
