Maybe the anti-tinkle valve is jammed with back pressure?

Under what conditions are you able to accelerate under the car. I need more info to offer an appropriate response.

Tingling as in a hollow resonance sound? It's coming from the metal compartments behind your seat and the metal part that goes downthe center of the car. Sound deadening fixes it.

Edit: Nvm, I'm thinking of a different sound.

I have axle click as well all gettin taken care of under warranty trust me i have every problem that happens on Z i had tire feathering, axle click (now), Cat tingling (now), and now just realizing that i have the gas gauge reading is wrong tsb so i have to get that handled, plus mushy brake pedal so has to be flushed and bled with new fluid

I've just started getting the sound and I have an '03. It's only there when I accelerate or decelerate and at around 1500rpm... at any lower or higher rev the sound disappears.. i got under the car and i could hear it from the cat to mid muffler and that's where it's at its loudest - mid muffler... does this sound like the same problem? And if not then does anyone know what it could be?

Cheers
