    Hi
    I have a 91 Accord EX Sedan and just crossed 151K

    i hear a rattling noise coming somewhere from the rear end. Previously, I
    use to hear this rattling sound when the car used to cross the speed of 70
    mph but these days I can hear it even when I start the car and just moving
    out of the driveway. It sounds as if some two metal objects are clanging
    together.

    just wondering what it could be.

    TIA.

    Exhaust system - Look for bent, or rusted, or loose/falling off heat shields
    around the exhaust pipe; loose/missing pipe hangers, muffler falling off,
    etc.

    Check your springs. They have been known to corrode and crack on older and
    or high mileage Accords. The noise could be the springs rattling or even
    the shock tubes (due to the off kilter springs).

    Yeah I think that could be the thing , cause its sounds as if two metal rods
    clang together.

    Thanks for all the feedback.
    Will check all.
