Default Rattle

Took del of my C8 3/16 and all is well except for sounds like rattle from eng bay. It has the sound of exhaust touching frame or body at idle and shut down. Has anyone heard this?

I think he is looking for potential sources of the rattle so he doesn't have to take it in.

Mine developed an obvious exhaust rattle. Need to pull it apart to find where its coming from.
