Default Exhaust rattling *FIX*

Ok so here's item #2 that I searched with no one having any luck *AT ALL* and I now have a remedy. If your car is making an exhaust vibration or rattling sound, the sound dampening material in the exhaust heat shield has decayed and IS what is making the sound!!! :suspiciou

Remove the exhaust heat shield that has the 4 nuts and use a screw driver to get the folded over crimps. Remove the heat shield (takes some doing). Done.

YOU WILL NOT have any issues doing this. I ran a 4" turbo back exhaust with no issues, ever.
