Exhaust heat shield?
Is it a real deep rumble, or a light rattle?

Bend it back out of the way  -- Look for light tin plate around the exhaust or down below... something might be touching the exhaust or the engine block...

| i had a look today at the shield it seemed fine so i had another look and i found the outside of the top pulley loose its the one with the three circle shaped in a triangle on it should i start to get worried about how did it get loose . also i no i was told before i bought the dmax that they were a bit noisy but i didn't think it would be as bad as it is it never seems to really quiting down what do you think is it im just use to the trooper i had as it wasnt as noisy. |

It's not the exhaust just touching the body is it. When the exhaust is cold (leave an hour after driving) get under and give it a good shake and see if it clunks off anything?
