FeelLikeSuperstar Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 Hi Everyone, 3 months ago i became a proud owner of 2004 legacy 35th anniversary edition- i love that car a lot (especially cause its my first car:spin:) From time to time it makes a thin rattle mettal on metal noise when aceelerating (more like buzzing) and recently i noticed its some times doing it when i turn left and accelerate. I know its hard to explain on the paper, but it sounds like a small rock(inside) kicking the sides of the metal pipe. The sound can go away for couple weeks and then come back and than again leaves:eek: :mad:What i did: I took the heatshields off, not the one from the manifold tho i bielive. Also check catalitic for pieces:redface: :confused:It sounds like: small rocks in a pipe, or like someone pulled a guitar string and hit it with a metal stick :eek:Timing: Can dissapear for couple of weeks than come back for couple days and dissapear again :eek:Possition:Front - under the car before the engine bay, may be a little to passenger side :eek:Loudness: I can hear it inside when music is not playing, and when i open the window its pretty lound whe the sound reflects from cars nearby! Forgot to mention: It only rattles when driving, when pressing gas on parking it doesnt! Thanks a lot! I hope we can figure it out together)) cause mechanic cant find the source!

Osei Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 Sounds like the heat shields that are around the manifolds themselves.. You can try to crimp the ends or just use hose clamps. O. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
