Haven't had any issues, regular maintenance done but once drove today car was pretty loud and when accelerated and could feel something moving underneath the car. It sounded almost like a muffler with a whole in it, not sure if its the transmission, caddy converter or what. Was still drivable but feel the power was much less...didn't feel comfortable going over 35mph. Does anyone know what theis could be? There was only one previous driver (old lady)

Sounds like the CAT may be plugged, a baskpressure will tell you if it is.

Also inspect the exhaust and underside, looking for missing hanger brackets, broken bolts, loose heat shields.
