q300 rattle
just installed my DP and Q300 on my '13 sedan. noticed that the resonator is rubbing/rattling against the underside of the car. i can feel it with my hand behind the center console. does anyone else have this issue? i have tried to re-adjust the mid pipe but the flex joint just pivots and won't let the adjustment stay when i tighten the bolts.

-your mid pipe is hitting the drive shaft heat shield. Solution is to buy 12mm extra long exhaust hangers (our model uses 5). You might get away with 3 and leave the 2 stock hangers near the tips so they don't hang low
-or you might just need stiffer exhaust hangers. Everyone buys kartboy hangers but i went with these myself:
Alien Embryo Exhaust Hangers 12mm | Catalog Products | Shop | Paranoid Fabrications
I like to support the small business owners
Plus you get 5 for $40 shipped which is a great deal.FYI DO NOT use any lube on the polyurethane hangers. Stuff like wd-40 will eat threw the material (not sure why but it does). Just use some soap and water to slip them on.
loosen all
Loosen all bolts on tbe and realign everything, I did what guy said b4 I tried making adjustments and my hangers have been on cl for 3 months, never used, brand new
