What's up guys? I've been a member for a while, but this is my first post. I need your help.
I have a 2009 Acura TL SHAWD Auto about 78k miles. I've had this car going on two years. The only work I had done is my windows tinted. So, it's been almost two weeks with this problem. When I am accelerating, between 2-3 RPMs around 2nd or 3rd gear. I hear a crazy noise, like a rattle, it almost sounds like I have on an aftermarket exhaust. So, I called one of my Acura dealers and he says it's probably my heating shield. So, I went to the Acura dealer where I purchased my car, we take it for a test drive and he put's it on a lift to see what is going on. After waiting about 30 mins. He comes back and tells me it's my b-pipe that causing the noise. He goes on to say that inside of this pipe something is loose in there. For the dealer to replace my b-pipe is $1100.00. I only have my power train warranty. Have any of you ever heard of this? Is this common? Should I go somewhere else to get it fixed or the dealer?
