I didnt read any of your post, just wanted to Hi-Jack.

Seahawks suck
Steelers own you.
Steelers sucked some major referee ******* to win that game. Yes..I'm still bitter. It's because we were a better team and played a better game. But no hard feelings I know you're not bein' a dick about it.

I took it in yesterday, because they diagnosed that it was most likely something that had broken off and was rattling inside the resonator. So they ordered a new resonator/piping that I believe goes from the resonator to the mufflers. (Not exactly sure 'cuz the service guy wasn't positive on the 3.0's what the parts include).

Anyway I get a call/voicemail saying they replaced the parts, but the rattling is worst. WTF??????? I'm not mad...I'm good to go for now in an '07 Cadillac CTS 3.6 V6. But what the hell is wrong? Anyone else have a similar problem?

They're not sure exactly what's wrong, and will call me 2mor when they know more. If they end up having to replace basically the whole exhaust (It's all under warranty thank god) I'm thinking about upgrading to the SuperSprint exhaust (Audi's upgrade).

Anyway..again...anyone have any idea or have similar problems? The whole thing's been really weird and obviously not a common problem.
I drive a 2011 Audi S5 convertible and have been living with this annoying rattle for too long.

I finally found a muffler shop that knew exactly what this was. He says it’s a failing flex pipe. He will weld this one or replace it all together and the rattle will be gone. I will keep you posted, it’s going in next week.
