Ive had this problem. My dealership replaced my resonator and the sound is gone now. The sound just gets worst to so you might want to bring it in and show them.

I had a section of my exhuast replaced a few months ago for a rattle noise. They said there was a dual wall tube section ( i'm thinking the resonator ) that had the inner wall cracked, and was makign the noise.

a few weeks ago, it came back, but it was the sheild above the muffler ( i think ), but I know it was a heat sheild they adjusted.

Good luck!
