Vibration noise in the rear of my car

#1 Post by Frederic Dumont »

Hello,
When I strongly accelerate and I release the pedal, I have a huge noise coming from the rear of my car like two metal sheets vibrating.
I don't find where the problem comes from.
If anybody had had a similar problem, please let me know how to solve it.
Thanks.

Best regards from France.

If you have exhaust pipes exiting through the bumper guards, check for clearance. They can sound like you're being chased by the hammers of hell if they touch.

Hello,
Thanks for your help and advice.
I have found the problem.
It was indeed the exhaust pipes which touched the rear of the body.
I have turned them to have more clearance and the problem was solved.

What a pleasure to have a car which doesn't make any noise !!!
Best Regards
