The only problem is that when I accelerate faster than usual, the engine transition from making a low-pitched hum to a much higher pitched sound coming from something like a tin can with a rock rolling around inside of it. It doesn't seem to affect the performance, but the sound is unsettling. I don't ever really come across the issue if I accelerate slowly but it's really annoying when minivans are passing me from a stop light.

Sometimes just a tap on them with rubber hammer or even on tail pipe with engine off can make a noise. If so there are assorted ways to deal with some up to replacing that whole pipe or part with those on them. Should be an easy check to rule that in or out, T   Email This Post   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
