yeah guys idk why, but my exhaust sounds like it has that ricey buzzing to it, and its nasty, and i cant take off without it sounding, and it seems it only happens when its cold, but it only will go away if i go WOT and then get really hot and then goes away, what can that be from? and how can i fix it?

 

Broken weld maybe? Does it rattle a bit when letting out the clutch in 1st?
I have the same exhaust, and although mine doesnt have this issue, I have heard of others that have. The more the warmer this exhaust gets, the louder it gets as well I find.

 

It's a 4 cylinder lol

Plus what exhaust system do you have anyways?

 

nah the warmer it gets the better it gets, and i have a rattle its the heat shield i know for sure, but my exhaust set up is, stock header, ZZP DP with cat, and then Corsa sport cat back

 

ZOMG! TAKE OFF DA HEET SHELZ!

 

haha i want to but i cant yet, i will tho, but its not that its something bout the exhaust, maybe tomorrow ill get a video and you guys can hear it but it sounds ricey and i hate it

 

Ok, when the exhaust is cold, and you go wot, does it sound a bit buzzy under throttle for a few seconds until warmed up?? I have heard of that through a performance shop around here.

Post the vid clip I would be interested in hearing it

 

mine sounds like **** while its warming up as well.. idk what to tell you, other than try a different muffler.

 

this happens to me every DAY raspy the first 5 min then loud and deep the rest of the time its normal dont change nothing.

 

The Flex joint in the DP, till it warms up and expands. Or possibly the cat got loose.... here kitty kitty kitty, tig welding for you.

 

tht's why i always let me car warm up for a few minutes first.

 

The good thing about Corsa is if you have a problem, simply fax them you're bill of sale with a credit card number and shipping addy after speaking to them. They will send you the new part before receiving the defective part so you dont have to run a straight pipe etc. Simply put the suspect part in the box the replacement came in and ship it back.

 

I have the same setup but with the zzp header too and mine is loud and rice sounding, it almost sounds like it has a leek at cold start.

 

Hmm, I will be speaking to Corsa in the next couple of days. I will bring this up and get an explanation. There has to be a root cause here. I will let you know what they say. The staff at Corsa are A+

 

ahh let me go get a video to show everyone how bad the exhaust sounds, and i guess its normal, like it sounds like garbage for like 10 mintues and then its loud and deep, give me till tonight to post a video im really busy

 

Yep sure enough, broken baffle in the front resonator. Snapped a f'in bolt taking the fukin thing off too. Replaced. Game on.

 

My 2005 SS/SC With 120 miles on it broke a baffle in the stock muffler. The dealer tried to tell me it was normal and sounded louder because it was a performance car...

I laughed and said check it again, they fixed by replacing the whole exhaust.

Yeah, typical dealership crap. To my dealership everything that breaks is always because of abuse or a mod or it's just normal to be broken. My dealership was trying to tell me that its normal for an emergency brake to rub. I had to fight em to fix it. I'm suprised they didnt try and blame the brakes rubbing on my short throw or intake.... ****.

 

I had the same problem... It was my resonator, I can't remember what specifically was wrong with it but the dealer replaced it and that fixed the problem.
