Hi, I haven't posted much on this forum since I registered frown.gif mainly b/c I haven't had time or money to do anything to my car, but I'd really appreciate your opinion on this. I have a 94 celi gt with 110k miles and when I drive it I can hear a metallic rattle coming from under the hood under acceleration, sometimes at low and sometimes at high RPM. This doesn't happen all the time, but it has become more frequent over the last few months to the point where now I hear it almost every time I drive the car. Has anyone had this problem or know what's wrong? Thanks

nono, the chrome pipe is what is probably hitting.

shid, before I installed the k&n filter there was no chrome pipe, just the rubber tube that came stock, and it made the same noise back then too. what do you mean by detonation Doge?

K rider, sorry, thought the pipe was always there smile.gif

Since the intake rattles more at high RPMs and high speeds; and builds up rattling over time, it was a good guess..

I dont think it sounds like detonation; what ur describing seems a little less intense than that. My guess is, if it's not the intake coming undone; it's something else.
