Rattling in the rear of the car


Recommended Posts

**Wrong Forum...-= Help Loren, can you move to the correct one. This is not a DIY -

Hello,

So I started the weekend hoping for some fun driving but ended up with a rattle coming out of the rear of the car.

I had a similar rattle in a previous vehicle and it turned out to be te Catalytic Converter but not much for diagnosing these German babies.

Is there a fault code that get set when the cats start to rattle?

Would hooking up the computer show anything on this?

What I mean is, is it worth ($$$) taking it to the dealer for just diagnostics (would they find it fast) or is this something that can be easily spot?

Any help to spot the trouble would be an awesome relief? - Any work weekends in Seattle coming up?

If its the Cat...how long until the CEL goes on? what else could get hurt after that or will it just rattle?

The performance is still there! - ( there is a mustang that is probably still trying to catch me from this weekend)

thank everyone,

1999 996 C2 Triptronic
