So ironically enough I'm still getting bottom end clanking...grrrr.

It got much louder when I changed my oil from 10-30 to 10-40...so considering that I figured it was too thick and dropped it back down to 10-30...the noise still persists.

But the funny part is, it's quiet and smooth when the engine is "cold", as soon as it gets up to operating temp the noise is much much louder and noticeable. I don't really hear it when I drive, only at idle.

Any ideas? Also, my exhaust sounds slightly different as well...

Possible clogged cat causing problems?
