i just bought my car a few weeks ago and it was fine then, now i have a rattle which i thought at first was my baffels in my muffler, turns out its the pipe infront of the catalytic converter, and if i push lightly on it the rattle goes away? any tips on making this stop??

 

Please let us know what model car you have.

The heat shield just below the oil pan rattled on my 97 hatch because the bolts that held it together rusted out. I replaced the bolt and added some steel wool for padding.

 

was this rattling like a squeaking kind of thing cause that happens to me if i back up out of my girls driveway ill bring out the clutch so it starts pulling itself than it hits the incline and the engine does its little shaking deal and this squeaking rattling noise comes out of nowhere and goes away once i get moving
ive got a 96 cx hatch though dont know what u got

 

sorry, fogot to mension that, 92 civic si hatch, still a trial member so if i dont repsond please feel free to email me
Thanks
