I found my problem.
Its apart of the front exhaust pipe. Its a mesh-like connection by the front axle.

Strauss said its $176+

Is it just possible to get that mesh like part? It seperated from the front sections of the exhaust.

Thanks.

You mean the Flex pipe. I would get some quotes on how much will it cost you in your neighborhood. (Cost me $200) Then get some prices on the exhaust part, If it is less then going to a shop and put it in yourself. (The shop will charge you about $30 for the flex pipe, the labor is what cost the most!)

Thanks.
I wasnt too sure what it was called exactly, all i knew was to keep the exhaust from vibrating.

Yeah labor costs. =/
Thats why I much rather do things myself.
& repair shops in my neighborhood overcharge. I might as well just get a aftermarket front exhaust pipe, it [hopefully] shouldnt make much of a difference sound wise & it will cost less.

Thanks Again.
