Hi,

I thought before I took it to the local servicer I would see if any pictures might help someone diagnose my rattle smile

I`ve includes pictures of the left/right side of the exhaust and 2 pictures of the under-side of the car to show the exhaust leaving the central section into the rear.

Does it look like the exhaust is sitting too low?

Left Exhaust View





Right Exhaust View





You`ll probably notice the exhaust isn`t sitting correctly. Its sitting too far left and the left mount is twisted. Please Note : I undid the mounts, and repositioned them so they were correct but they slipped back within a few miles.

Under car, showing exist of exhaust into rear





and..



Have looked at what people have said, I feel the exhaust isn`t supported in the center. Anyone agree?

Hi James,

Extra Photo added to new post

There should be a set of hangers under the diff area /stainless skid plate that holds the diffuser apron.

This photo looking front to back shows the cage with two mounts, the boss on the chassis is the skid plate bolt hole.






These rear box mounts should be solid and not be stretched too much



Hope this helps
