Hi all
Dropped in my baby to Honda last week to rectify an oil leak issue.
Took her out yesterday for a nice 150 mile drive.
I now hear a new rattle in the rear most detectable running at higher speeds cruising but can be heard downshifting.
Noise sounds like some metallic loose/rattling.
I can think of 3 possible reasons?:
1) Honda needed to remove rear valve cover to fix leak...something not retightened?
2) I have aftermarket headers and exhaust. Honda fixed the Cat converter heatshield touching the crossbar by cutting a little of the heatshield off. But now the flange of the Cat is 1/5 inch away from the crossbar......so when driving rattling gainst one another
3) Dreaded butterfly valve and Honda visit purely coincidental
