Funky Sound
Heres something unusual, when i gently press on the gas, or barelly have my foot on it, there is a wierd sound. Dunno how to explain it really, kinda like hot water pouring out of a kettle, or maybe change being rattled in a jar. Its a weird noise, and it sounds like its coming from the tranny area. At least i hear this from the inside. Anyone got a clue??

I'm curious as to what the noise was. If you're willing to respond to a pm, why not enlighten all of us?

Mine was the one in the middle next to where it Y pipes, I believe it was either before or after the center catalytic converter.
