Default Re: Exhaust noise (no not a nice noise)
I too had the dreaded rattle soon after picking my car up (it's a 55 plate with 20k on the clock). I optimistically hoped it was just a case of the heat shield rattling, but the more I listened the more I realised that I was kidding myself.

It normally occurred when warm and at about the 1400rpm mark only. When moving slowly in traffic, it felt like a steel drum band was following me


I took the car to my local dealer who booked me in to have the work done the following week. Although it appeared to be just one cat, they didn't want to take any chances and replaced both sides of the entire forward section of the exhaust system under warranty, I must say, this impressed me.
