da_grouch Reg'd: Apr 18, 2008 Master Mechanic	not sure if this goes here. so im gettin this god awful rattling noise when i shift from 1 1/2 k to 2 1/2k. any tyme im in between that range that noise is going on. im thinkin something is not right with my exhaust like something is loose but not to sure. has this happened to anyone else or has heard of this? im started to get pissed listen to that crap. and im gettin ugly looks from ppl when im drivin.

Orin Reg'd: Dec 08, 2005	I noticed you have an Injen Cold Air Intake, do you think it might be rattling against the fender perhaps?

krdshrk Reg'd: Sep 29, 2007 Godlike Advisor	Which exhaust do you have? It could possibly be the thin metal heat shield underneath the car rattling against the exhaust. Scikotics NJ is sponsored by Lawrence Scion 2006 GReddy Turbocharged Automatic tC 220+ WHP - 14.044 @ 97.02 MPH

FrAnkRYzzO Reg'd: Oct 21, 2005 $upervillain for Hire	You may be right about the exhaust. Shifting that low in the gear range will make your engine stutter a bit, and the midpipe or axleback may be coming inot contact with the heat shielding under the car. Get under the car and see if there are any spots where it looks close enough to hit and see if the area looks fresh from rubbing (not covered in dirt, etc) Even Zombies can Search... .............. .......................................................................Why Can't You?!?!?!

da_grouch Reg'd: Apr 18, 2008 Master Mechanic	i have the megan drift spec. well my buddie has a ksudo exhaust and his is do the same thing but only just when he revs the car up. when he's drivin or shiftin no sound unlike mine. he removed his heat sheild aswell.

Aviator213 Reg'd: Apr 07, 2007 Scion Guru	no need to remove the heatshield, its there for a reason lol taking it away may not be the best decision. When you get the chance to get underneath the car check all the connection points and see if a bolt is rubbing against the shield.

da_grouch Reg'd: Apr 18, 2008 Master Mechanic	ill prolly get under there today or tomarrow. but what id the bolt is rubbin the heat sheild? get another bolt or remove the heat sheild?

krdshrk Reg'd: Sep 29, 2007 Godlike Advisor	Bend the shield (it's aluminum or tin or something) and get a rubber piece or something to cover the bolt. Scikotics NJ is sponsored by Lawrence Scion 2006 GReddy Turbocharged Automatic tC 220+ WHP - 14.044 @ 97.02 MPH

FrAnkRYzzO Reg'd: Oct 21, 2005 $upervillain for Hire	You can also just hit the shield with a hammer to "finesse" it into the proper shape. Its just a heat shield. Its easier to change its shape then the shape of your exhaust. Even Zombies can Search... .............. .......................................................................Why Can't You?!?!?!
