Default Deep raspy sound when accelerating


in addition to my knocking, my car also makes a deep raspy sound (i think it might be the exhaust) whenever i accelerate in 1st or 2nd gear. can anyone help me out here?

yeah i definatly thing its your cat. conv. Mine made some raspy noises since i bought it, sounded like pipes rattling against the frame. Finally the whole thing went out and i gutted it, no more raspy rattle.

So i really think thats your problem!
