I have a loud rattling noise coming from under my car. This noise only happens once my car is warm. When i hit the throttle it just rattles really loud, is it something with my exhaust, converts or something? Thanks.

when warm? you say it sounds like it's in the exhaust?

probably a busted cat. especially if you have lowered car with bad shocks, the hit the cat pipe once and the honeycomb media breaks up inside.

that is if it's IN the exhaust and you don't think it's a motor knock

notorious on 94-95 5.0 cars.

Jack the car up and try banging on the cats to locate the bad one. You should be able to hear the rattling by doing that, which will tell you whether it's your cats. Also be careful if the car has been running the cats get hot as sh$t.
