Hi,

When i switch on the car and start accelerating the car slowly i can listen to a vibrating noise (its like a metal thin rod shaterring) beneath the car just 1/2 second and than its fine.

I wanted to know what is this sound. I have not heard this before.

Regards

Hi there, i would start with having the exhaust heat shields check.

The dealership verified and said its Cat problem and they replace it, after which still it i can listen to the vibration. According to the technician its the Abs actuator which is normal it makes this sound but i am not convinced with it as it never use to make this sound earlier. I will ask them to check the heat shield as well. Any other suggestion or any one have faced this problem.
