Loud banging under car when it rains hard...

[mustangguy289]

Could it be one or both of the cats contracting due to the rapid temp change?

Every time I hear it my first thought is that the exhaust fell off. When you slightly rev it (even with clutch pushed in) it sounds like one side of the motor is open header. Like a really really bad exhaust leak. But that doesn't make sense when turning into parking spot with clutch pushed in and on the brake.


It feels nothing like when traction control sets in when accelerating hard.

Maybe I should hook up the go pro on the way to work next time it rains.

^^^ Do that or put your cell phone on Video and hold it down near the floor, maybe try and reach over to the passenger side and see if it records it louder there than the driver side.

I've been trying to figure out a noise on mine for a while too, fucken sucks!

[mustangguy289]

I can't every predict when it happens... that's what sucks lol.

[yellowstang]

I couldn't either, so I usually put my phone in the cup holder just in case it starts. Played it for the service guy when I dropped it off, but the guy actually fixing it didn't hear the video until today.

Always be prepared!

I took a turn pretty hard and got a little loose and it came on. I was like fuck! Did I just break my car with 150 miles on it?!?

Damn that's crazie girl!

My old aod car would do that when it was raining or i drove through standing water. It was something with the trans, I swapped from a 5 speed to an aod and back to a 5 speed. I thought I was crazy...
