strange exhaust noise

Postby Elbus » Thu Jan 31, 2013 10:06 am

hi everyone, i've got a 2004 2.5 auto lib, and after a 'spirited' drive, it started making an odd noise in the right hand exhaust only, is this just something that is loose, or is it more serious?

Can you be more descriptive?
But jack it up safely or get it on a hoist and take a peek underneath, eg: mine had a few pieces of gravel caught in the rear heat shields.

it only makes the noise when it gets turned off, and the exhaust note burbles and rattles a bit but only does it in the right exhaust, which makes me think something is loose

Yeah it could be gravel or somethin. I've got annoying rattle whenever I get above 2000 RPM about the centre pipe... (-.-)
