First and foremost... every car i've ever owned has had a small engine. I owned a Chrysler Fifth Avenue in college which had a 5.7l V8 but I don't count that because it was a complete piece of ****.

Anyways, for all I know, this is "normal" but i'd be shocked if it is.

I've taken the car to service to have this issue fixed and supposedly they did, but please watch the video and tell me what you think.

Any time the car is idling, this is what it sounds like. I feel like i'm driving a tin can with 100 rats inside trying to escape.

I had the same issue, most apparent when the car was cold...

this is what was repaired on my service order, haven't heard the sound since

CS DRIVER SIDE EXHAUST RATTLES LOUDLY WHEN COLD START

- HEAT SHIELD FOR EXHAUST SYSTEMREPLACE

its unacceptable for sure!

Ha, yeah if they fixed it, they did a terrible job. Tell them to fix it again as no E550 exhaust sounds like that.

Thank you.. there doesn't seem to be any pattern as to when it happens, I took this video after driving for 3 hours in FL so the car is definitely not cold, lol

Never heard that before. That's what I love about this forum. One day I might hear it and recall this thread.

I hope so, then I would feel like I paid you back for suggesting I get my wood replaced lol
