96 PA - Noise from the passenger side

When I am drive at low speed, I am hearing noise from the passenger side, sounds like I have couple tin cans on string tied behind the car. I am puzzle as to what it is. I know it is not the exhaust. I jacked the car up and did see anything. It only happens at low speed. It does happen when idling, or if I rev the engine. Please help.

More than likely, what you are hearing is the catalytic converter. :uhoh: When this thing breaks loose from the inside, fragments of the catalysts swirl around in the housing and sound like “tin cans dragging behind the car". Take it to a muffler shop where they can put it in a rack for inspection. (You can not see this from the outside). Replacement cats run around 125-175 bucks installed, depending on where you take it. MagnaFlow cats are a good replacement.
