Hey fellow liberty owners

I have noticed what sounds like 'exhaust rattle' coming from my car at normal operating temp which occurs around 1500 - 3500 rpm when going on or off throttle.

I'm aware this could be an issue with the heatshield and the problem it is a common trait with these lines of models.

Any insight into a possible fix or indepth explanation of the issue at hand?

Cheers

I had the same problem, I found that there were little rocks and bits on the inner side of the heat shield. To fix I unbolted them and tipped the bits out and hasn't been rattling for a few months now. If that doesn't fix it there might be another issue.

Alright cheers for the reply mate! I'll look into it.

Mine had loose heafshields around the front cat converters. I wrapped stainless steel hose clamps around them and tightened down. 6 years later still no noise.
