Help Identifying Part - Missing Part and Vibration Noise from Rear
 
(I am trying to Identify the part below..)

Hi, I have more and more vibration noise comming from the rear of the car, always when RPM match 1000 or 2000, and engine is working. This guided me to a loose part around the muffler.

I jacked the car today and give a look under it, to find a missing bracket on the Catalyser on the Left Side. It is a Porsche Boxster 99

I searched in my Bentley Service Manual and I din't really found what that bracket was and where is it going. Can someone help me to Identify the missing part ? thanks :)

Sorry Man, its a brace thats welded to the side of the muffler can and since its missing it was either cut or broken off. U'll have to buy another muffler can or have a muffler shop weld on another.

oh.. hmm.. damn.. :(

Thanks a lot for Helping me Identifying the Part, now at Least I know what the problem is.

Probably than I could do a custom bracket, just so the vibration noise stop. :rolleyes: The muffler Can is pretty accessible and I'm sure there is something to do with that ;)

Thanks again for the fast reply.. it's very appreciated! :)
