Whenever it rains I feel and hear this LOUD vibration on the passenger side of my car. I notice it gets louder when I let off the gas and I'm rolling to a stop. Can someone tell me whats wrong? I've searched for this before and posts where people had the same problem, but never solved it.
Do a search on it using the 4th button from the left at the top of the window. Search for "Rain vibration" or anything along thoes lines and you will find your answers.
A bunch of other people reported this same problem. Good luck.

it is a defect i guess u could call it in the honda b-pipe, or the pipe that runs from the cat to the resonator on the exhaust. u can get it replaced but if u already switched your exhaust, its kinda pointless. it is just the pipe rattling off the underbody form i believe someone said the metal expanding as it is cooled down form the rain/snow. thats why it only happens during heavy rain, when the exhaust pipe can be submerged in a puddle or something or heavy snow where again, the pipe is submerged.
Mine does that on a daily basis whether it rains or not.. I had my exhaust custom bent and tucked and its a little too close to the heat shield. If I go to a rough section of freeway it will start to oscillate and hit the heat shield. My passengers can feel right below them, which puts it exactly where my exhaust is running. Been meaning to get that fixed too, heh.
My car rattles also-very bad in all conditions. Normally it's when i am turning to the left, it sounds like it is from inside the trunk or under the car. It also rattles when my trunk is closed and I shut the door. I have custom speakers in the rear, maybe they are hitting those trunk bar things- if any of you know, please help me.
