So lately I have been hearing this jingling sound coming from underneath the car when I take off in first. It sounds like a metal piece that is only barely loose but it just bugs me because it is new. Any help would be appreciated.

 

throwing this out because it just happened to me but my muffler tip moved to touching my rear bumper outlet and made a similer sound. Probablly no help but just throwin it out there.

 

According to CR, the "Body Integrity" department isn't one the strongest points on our beaZts. The power window thingy, the hatch door struts & the gas latch release issue seem to plague our monZters. That kinda overlaps with electrical issues, too. Other than
that, I LOVE MY ZED (flawless engine, flawless AT, flawless cooling system, etc.)

 

could also be the heat plate or gaurd

 

the best bet is to jack the car up and look at your exhaust. give it a good shake. if it hits anything while you are shaking it then you know where you'll have to do some ajustment. there are some undercarage covers there too, where you might find rocks or pieces of dropped tools, that might be trapped there.

I had a bad rattle that would occur when I excelerated and was driving me crazy. I though my exhast might be the problem, but when I looked under< i saw that the "parking break wire" which runs through the crank shaft housing was somehow unseated and was rubbing against the driveshaft. Im finally gald I found it, as I coudnt stand driving the car with the anoying rattle..... it drives you crazy .....

 

I think it may be the throw out bearing on my clutch. Anyone know how much to fix that or can you just tighten it (not really familiar with clutch install.)
