xfire makes a noise from cold
when i drive my xfire from cold, i drive alone and when i take my foot of the pedal the car makes a rattling noise. this noise goes when the car is warmed up. any ideas as my warranty has run out.

Re: xfire makes a noise from cold
The guts are probably expanding enough from heat to stop the rattle. Either 'gut' the cat or get a new one.
But make sure that is what it is first...I'm just making an educated guess here.

I was also just remembering something from a long ago post...it could also be a the heat shield above the muffler. At least that is easier to check.
