Coolant Flush/ Rattle Solved

So, I work as a towing dispatcher and we are also a full service shop. I got the coolant flushed today and my exhaust rattle finally fixed for $144 total. Apparently there are 2 cooling system on the SS S/C and they flushed em both. My main point of this post is that the exhaust rattle was finally fixed after my 5th visit in for the same problem. Yes, 4 Chevy dealers were unable to duplicate an exhaust rattle. F'in dealers.

Do you have springs? Because my exhaust only started to rattle when I lowered the car. IDK

Nope no springs. Everything is pretty much stock besides Typhoon intake. Speaking of...I am about to go to the garage and clean my MAF. I oiled the filter about 5,000 miles ago and it is really sluggish under acceleration.

By the way word of advice on the Dex-Cool if you actually let that coolant go for 5 years/150,000 miles you should probably start saving for a head gasket now. I see this **** at least once a week. I'm still convinced it is a GM scam to get more money out of you lol.
