    strange rattle/buzz

    I recently installed solid mounts, so im hearing a lot of new sounds (as one could expect)

    take a listen, its pretty loud and i cant figure it out!

    It comes in RIGHT at 2k rpm like its on a switch..

    Check your exhaust for any loose heatshields.

    I had this problem and a 5 inch hose clamp from Home Depot fixed it.

      thats a good call... i just did the motor mounts and remember fighting with one of the heat shields near the exhaust.

        ^ I installed condor mounts and didn't tighten the shield properly, made a rattle sound definitely my number one guess
