just curious if anyone has had a simular experience. for how ever long now i have this "ting" sound when going over the slighest of bumps. i suspected that it was the rear beam hitting against the exhaust (but thats a totally different noise all together) i fitted a clamp to the heat shield to raise the exhaust from the beam, (thats cured that) yet what ever i seem to try the "tinging" noise is still there. anyone got a idea of what it could be? any common probs, the only thing i notice is the cats quite close to the heat shield, yet the sounds seems to be coming from the rear, could it be the springs, somthing not fitted? frustrating is not even the word

along the rear beam, you will see the cables, quite easy to spot.
