rattling at low idle
when my car is running at around 500rpm at a stop light or parked or whatever, i get a rattle from the rear end of the suspension like the rear sway bar i put in or the rear trailing arms which are also after market. i haven't had a chance to jack my car up in the air and take a look. has anyone experienced this at all? and is this a major thing?
if i rev it up just a touch, the rattling stops. any pointers?????

i was thinkin it was my muffler rattling but my friend was listening to it and said it sounded like it was closer to the front of the car, i haven't touch the heat shield so i figured it was somethin with the after market sway bar or trailing arms

It's prolly something similar to this guys' problem https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=739742 but you might want to check the torque on the stuff you added just to be sure, wouldn't want to lose control or anything because of suspension failure

Re: rattling at low idle (BADEG6)
thanks for all your help, i'll check them all when i can get my car in the air. i'm not too worried about things being loose if anything most of that stuff is too tight. used an impact gun on vertually all of it. but i will check it all out. thanks.
