Default A few annoying vibrations...any remedies??

thanks to my big exhaust i am getting a few vibrations that i would hope someone can help me fix

the key sensor by the window for the clicker....the plug type thing passenger side by the window shakes and rattles and bugs me pretty bad


accelerating- at about 3500-4500rpm the rear strut bar (I THINK AND HOPE) vibrates and makes a horrible noise

any suggestions???

can make an audio clip if you need to hear it

thanks!!

Other two I don't know about. But for the exhaust, depending where exactly it's rubbing (like the sub-frame). People have put washers there to help increase a gap. But that didn't work for me, for it was still on it. So I just wrapped that portion up with heat wrap several times and it's been pretty good to me for a couple years now.

best thing to do is drive around with a friend in the pass. seat touching stuff till the vibration goes away, then shim or do whatever it takes to get rid of it. i personally just start punching stuff and they seem to go away, lol. if ya have a couple subs in the car, turn the volume up and chase them all down.

1/4" Felt tape. I've got about 20 yards of it in my car, along with Brown Bread sound deadening and I finally have zero rattles after four years of owning and pulling the car apart, lol.
