Hello everyone.
So the TB started making this horrible rattling noise underneath the vehicle the other day. Sounds like bolts bouncing around or popcorn popping. I have only heard this noise in Park at Idle and it does not do it all the time. Also doesn't do it on short trips, after 15-20+ miles of driving it then it will do it. Below is a Video of this sound...
So far I have checked most of the large-medium bolts underneath the vehicle from the Transfer Case to the front bumper and have not found a fault. Also checked all the Exhaust, Engine, Gas Tank Shields/Plates and all appear to be tight with no play/slop. And I took off the access cover for the Transmission to check the Torque Converter and doesn't seem to be coming from that particular location and the Torque Converter is spinning true.
In person and to me it sounds as if it's coming from the Exhaust system or the Transmission. Next time it does this, I plan to take a 3/8 or 1/2 in Extension to the Exhaust components and place it to my ear to see if I can find the culprit.
Additional info:
Current miles 171,900
Engine & Trans appear to be original/factory
Exhaust systems appear to be original/factory (except Resonator delete Pipe)
No current CEL light and Engine Trans runs & shifts great.
So what do you guys think/suggest?...if anyone has experienced this sound/issue please let me know.
Thanks in advance!
