Clicking noise coming from exhaust
 
I am hearing a noticeable clicking noise from the exhaust. Its not continuous but its irritating. I only hear it when the car is hot and even when i shut it off. Anyone else having this problem.

It could be a leak.

dsg_gt2004 06-18-2005 09:43 PM

could it be condensation( if you have/had your a/c on) falling on it...it cant be a leak because he hears it when the car is off

anyways, i have heard that noise when i cut my car off and close my door, it sounds like water falling on a hot iron(nice sizzle sound)

if its been raining or theres dew or anything like that when i shut my door i hear water splash my exhaust also

a lot of cars without cats, or have bad cats have that tick tick tick tick.

dsg_gt2004 06-18-2005 10:45 PM

No i have heard the sizzle sound before. This noise is a kind of loud clang. It sounds like two pieces of metal striking each other even when the car is cut off and cooling down.

Yeah i know it sounds wierd but thats what i am hearing.

venom 06-19-2005 06:57 AM

That is normal, alot of cars make those noises its just the metal parts cooling. Say no to Drugs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now that makes sense.

Blue02GT 06-20-2005 12:32 PM

The reason I asked about the long tubes is after I put mine in I got a clicking sound also that would continue with the car shut off. Turned out to be condensation dripping on to the headers. Freaked me out at first since it was so loud and the car was off.
