Default Rattling noise in right rear

sup guys,

First let me say that I just recently purchased a gs400, however, it is now that its making a rattling sound in the right rear tire everytime I hit a bump or porhole. Any ideas what the problem could be?? any info would be greatly appreciated.

Welcome to ClubLexus Don.

I moved your post into the '2nd gen' GS forum which is what you have if you have a GS400.

I'm uppin this because it statrted on my GS also ...The dealer said it was the 0-rings (the rubber hangers that hold up the exhaust) and they were old so the muffler is knocking... I am getting them changed out when I get my oil changed this weekend i will update you guys...
