|
|
All,
My lwb 1997 central section exhaust where the silencer is rattles at idle. As soon as the rpm raises or lower slightly then the rattle is gone. I have checked the rubber mounts they seem on. If I pressed the silencer section with hand (glove on) the rattle immediately go away. Same as if I pushed the silencer section slightly sideway. The exhaust looks like an aftermarket one, replaced by the previous owner just before I got the car.
Is there anything I missed here? Does the original exhaust section comes with exhaust weight? |

My genuine one has a bit of a buzz at idle when its cold....
I think it may actually be just engine mounts/exhaust mounts being a bit tired/softer than new. It doesn't do it enough to bother me at the moment, but I can sympathise, stops if you just touch the exhaust.
You might find a new set of the rubber exhaust mounts stops it - they aren't mega money, or perhaps a bit of manipulation (denting) the large middle silencer, but do this at your own risk lol. |
