    rattle in my remus

    when my car idols i get a high pitched rattling noise, more of a squeak come to think of it, somewhere in the mid pipe of my exhaust. none of the joints are loose. its a very aggravating sound seeing as its high pitched and loud. you guys have any ideas of what it might be? elaborate

    thanks, Gimp

    Its common to get stones on the little cross piece below the exhaust half way along if you have used any gravel roads. They make varying types of noises by being wedged between the exhaust and the small bolt on cross piece.
    Good luck with it, Andrew

    it sounds like it could be similar to mine issue, that when the exhaust is warm it stretch around 10mm, and the exhaust rubs on the rear beam axle. on certain rev range.
