unusual engine rattle .. at idle . 2008 ex
I heard this rattling noise .. low in volyme but amnoying ..

Noise was coming behind engine block ..

When i press the engine block firmly by hand . It goes away and when i release my hand it comes back again ..

Not noticalbe at high rpm and cold starts ..

Goes away as soon as i hit gas paddle

Re: unusual engine rattle .. at idle . 2008 ex
Is this is a different noise than the one you were complaining of in the other 3 posts you made, that the mods had to keep merging into the original post?

In previous mounts it had excessive vibration in reverse at cold start up .
And thud noise on bumps..

This time there is a vibration but not as louder as previous .
It goes away when i press on the block firmly ..

I m in doubt if its just a loose part rattling .. things there are very conjusted ..
Cant peek back there bhind block and cnt evn reach my hand ..

I'm not a mechanic....have watched it a few times and I hear nothing at 09 or 1:13. Japanese engines make some strange sounds at times. My 2010 is no different.

catalaytic converter for loose fitting.? if they are loose it will vibrate
making a loud noise.
