squeak sound from axle back?
After I installed my corsa axleback, somehow I kept experiencing a squeaky noise from the rear of the car... i thought it was the NPP cable hitting the housing, it still makes the noise after taping them down.... sometimes it just appears when I drove over a bump and it might disappear in a few minutes. When I press on the tips, it makes a squeak noise and sometimes it changes to like a vibration or tapping sound... I have tried to use some WD40 to spray on all 4 hangers but still having this issue. the shop that installed my headers mentioned it might be from the suitcase insulator? Does anybody know what I can do
I attached a video below... It looks like the tips are rubbing against the diffuser but after making some clearance, its still like that... NEED SOME HELP https://youtube.com/shorts/zBE1kkjk2...8eByBea7gGgGl_

There is a bracket right behind the diffusor that bolts to the body and holds the exhaust. Make sure it is tight.
That is a horrible installation too. You are going to melt your diffusor. I know that is a double wall tip, but it still gets pretty hot. -Geoff

I had something similar when I put the borla axle back on my car. It ended up being the muffler not far enough forward, and the hanger off the pipe was hitting the metal in the mount not only rubber. I just had to push it all forward, and then the tips didn't stick out like yours are.

Yes, #9. The rubber wasn't worn out, the car was basically new when I installed it. The part attached to the exhaust that rests on the rubber was pushed rearward too much, causing the angled part to rub on the bracket and make annoying squeaks.

I took off that part tonight, you were DAMN RIGHT, there was like a cut on that rubber plastic housing, its prob been rubbing on the exhaust hanger or something. i cut off the cut and put some WD40 on, went for test drive, haven't heard anything so far,,,,,
