Happened with my 91 Legacy Wagon, and did surprisingly little damage! Mashed the mud flaps on both sides, and as previously stated, had to be lifted off with the floor jack. Heaven forbid I do that with the SVX, with significantly less ground clearance.

It was pretty stupid of me to flop the car like that though! For oil changes and the like I still swear by the ramps. I'm more careful now, and the auto trans makes it a little easier. Glenn

So yesterday when i was driving around with my windows down i heard this rattling noise that I usually only hear when im traveling uphill and the rpms's are over 2k. Started up the car this morning only to hear the same rattling....tried to isolate where it was coming from and its right underneath the passenger seat...or at least very close to that area. So I'm thinking the main culprit for this noise is the heat shield . When I was changing my oil last time i knocked around to see if anything was loose but it didnt seem so....my guess is that it would only seem that way when the car is running but im definitley not doing that with the car on. I know that they are bolted on there but with all the salt and winters its probably rusted on there although i can see some of the bolts. I dont have any tools to get them cut off either. I guess my only choise is to take it to the exhaust shop?
