I have just purchased a '01 S2000 from my uncle and the car has an N1 invidia exhaust system upgrade. I have noticed a high pitched squeaking noise coming from the middle/rear of the car when going over bumps in the road. The weird thing is from cold first thing on a morning the squeak is not evident, but after 330 mins or so driving you start to notice it and from that point onwards it gets more frequent and audible.

The rest of the car feels solid and the only other creaks are the ones you would expect, from the top etc.

I have reiterated all of this to my Honda dealer and it has been in with them for diagnostics.

They tell me it is the Invidia exhaust is causing the squeak and the only way to get rid of it is to put the stock one back on.

Has anyone experienced anything similar or know of a way I could fix this?

The rest of the car is superb but this is niggling me and I want to keep the invidia on!!

Cheers

 

I'm surprised you can hear any other noises over the Invidia.

 

At speed or high revs you can't, but low range, town driving you can hear the ominous squeaking

 

I know my friend had a hissing noise rather than a squeaking noise. He fixed it after he found out he was missing a couple bolts on his piping ... Don't ask why ... >_>

 

check the muffler on the right side of ur car. u know wen u standing behind it and looking at it check the right muffer cuz part of me MAY be rubbing up against ur bumper..OR check the muffler tips on both of them. they are rivveted on and tent to get loose. if thats not the problem then idk..
