Default Few Questions.

Hey all, I have a 2000 3.8 V6 Manual Camaro.

I love the car, its not anything comared to a V8 but its not slow eaither. Anyways I have a few questions about it.

I just noticed a weird sound when turning slowly in a parkin lot. Kinda a little rattle noise. From the front end. I havent got a chance to look yet, but tomorrow I am gonna pull the car in my work and check out underneath from the pits. I have had it in there before, and it looked good. Nothing loose, and nothing leaking, not one drop. Anyways, was wondering what I should check for. The car only has 92,XXX miles on it. Its not comming from the engine because I started it up and looked under the hood, had a friend rev it up and hold it steady at diff. RPMs and no noice. Seems to only do it when I was turning. I only heard it a couple of times 2nite, and it was when I was going slow in a parking lot and turning. Any suggestions?

Also I have a flowmaster single in dual out muffler. I belive it is the 40 series. Again, havent looked at it in awhile Its just sitting around. How will this sound on my ride? Thanks!

check the suspension and brakes. I had a rattle in the rear of my car, and it ended up being a loose brake caliper bolt.

is the noise coming from the front/back?

Well I didnt get it in since we were too busy at work. But I was hitting around 90 in the way home and it was shaking a little bit. It didnt do it much before when I first got the car 2 weeks ago. Well, its kinda like the brake/tire combination high speed shake. But the brakes dont shake when slowing down, im thinking the shaking is from the tires. Anyways could the sound and the shaking be related?
