when my car is loaded with 4/5 people i get a strange rattle or creek almost as if the exhaust is touching the rear beam?

It has standard springs and gas shocks. any ideas? could the exhaust be sitting wrong?

prob just need to adjust the exhaust up a lil bit. the rear beam moves up as you put weight in the car so the exhaust is probably hitting it.

just loosen the rear clamp and the centre clamp and twist the centre exhaust box. this should push the pipe going over the rear beam right up. then play with it so it sits right and doesnt rattle on the heat shield. then tighten clamps. job done.

i had this problem,check the rear clamp(the one on the backbox) and also the hangers situated just behind the cat and infront of the middle silencer as that was where my problem was.
