Rattle sound when car is turned on
I have an 01 Ford Escape, and recently whenever i turn the suv on after having it on for a few hours, i hear a rattling sound (kind of like something is shaking) which lasts for about 15 seconds. This sound is not there when the car is turned on an off without cooling. It might be coming from under the car, because it doesnt sound like its from the engine. any ideas? (car runs perfectly otherwise)
Es esta una buena pregunta?

In reply to my post of a temporary solution for cars catalytic rattle and extremely poor performance, putting a scissor jack under the converter and jacking up the car a bit so it collapses the converter, changes the flow of air and loose particles creating a better flow of output to increas performance enough to get you home

Paul, what if this person's rattle is not from catalytic converter and they ruin there converter using your suggestion, costing them BIG$$$$ for nothing. I am not arguing the point that this could be a ((temporary fix)) for a bad clogged/loose baffle, but you would want to be positive the converter is bad and replace converter shortly afterwards. MY 2 cents, have a good day.

The quality of answers on ifixit is disappointing.
