    What's wrong with this muffler?

    Hey Guys,

    Muffler is "rattling" internally by the sound of it.(RB30 Patrol).
    It started few weeks ago and getting worse apparently.
    There are no holes or exhaust leaks on it.
    When I press on the bottom of the muffler's body the noise goes down a fair bit.

    See the below video.

    Thanx

    sounds like youve burnt the guts out of the muffler, cheap enough to replace

    I think I'm going to open up the rattle box and find out what's that bearing doing in there.

    I wonder how I managed this. Probably short drives and "cooler coolant thermostat" didn't help.
    Short drives must have collected moisture inside and rusted the guts out loose.

    Nahhh! Its the awesome power of the RB30 ripping the baffle plates out!!!
    My advice is: not to follow my advice.
