Rattling sound from exhaust
Before anyone flames me, yes I did search. I searhced using this site's engine and google.
Now the problem. The car rattles when I start it up and the noise seems to be coming from the testpipe. I thought the O2 sensor was loose cause that is where it sounds like the noise is coming from, but it was on tight. Has anyone else had problems with the O2 bung on the pipe, or just the pipe in general?
Or could it be the exhaust?
Thank you in advance.

My O2 sensor was the primary source of rattles on my testpipe. If it wasn't screwed in tight enough to the spark plug foulers it would loosen itself and start to really rattle. Make sure everything is very tight

Got it. It was not on as tight as I thought it was. I did not want to strip it, so I did not tighten it enough earlier. But it's good now. Thanks Spec_Ops.
