sunday, monday or tuesday, i can cruise by and we go around the block or something. i have no idea what it can be, its the mysterious heat shield like sound that occurs at low speeds (intermittently) while accelerating. i need to get another pair of ears in on this

Take your fist and punch your exhaust especially before and after the cat. I had honeycomb stuck in mine for the longest time. It would make a heat shield like rattle while accelerating from a lower speed.

Check out the heat shield on the Right hand side just aft of the fender well that covers some wiring going to the back. I know mine rattles when you initially take off, but once it heats up enough and expands a little it stops doign it.

did it on the drivers side and nothing, i'll wait till it cools off before trying the passenger side.
