At roughly 15-25 mph if i let off the gas and then get back to it lightly, i'm hearing a, what i would say, metal on metal type sound. It's not real loud but enough to make me wonder what it is and if it's a bad thing. If any of you guys can understand what i mean or have heard the sound in your car please help. it almost sounds like it's coming from the middle of the car, if that helps. It also makes a similar noise when braking for a stop sign at low speeds, could it be the pads shifting, or hopefully not, a worse case scenario. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
 
I get that sound a lot on my 1990 Buick POS, and I think its a very bad sound. Id go take it in for a checkup.
 
the car is going in i just wanted to see what i could expect and from what you mention looks like they got some work to do. thanks again
 
yes, mine does it too. Dealer said they couldn't hear it and couldn't find it. Will take him for a ride tomorrow. Exactly, after letting off of the gas at low speeds, metal rubbing on metal sound, even does it for a sec after the car comes to a stop.
 
yep that sounds like the noise, mine goes in tuesday if you go first give me a heads up so i can tell my dealership exactly what to look for. Hopefully it's not too major:(
 
Hmm... Possibly a loose heat shield? I know as cars get older, then tend to rattle upon decel and stop, but it's possible yours wasn't shot down all the way.
 
All I know is --sounds like a bad dream of me taking mine out for it's first drive after being put back together--OH thats a BAD Dream SOUND alright--but really--after getting her back I will treat her gently awhile to hear "those Sounds"...and then..and then....and then.......let me hear it guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!What's gonna happen............zooooooooooom...and away we gooooooooooooo!!!!!!!! Yea Hawl!!!!!!!!!
