I noticed for the second time today that when I have two people in the back seat and I accelerate moderately from a stop I get a crunching / grinding noise from the back of the vehicle. This is especially bad if I am coming out of a parking lot and going over that bump onto a major road. There are no scratches on the bottom of the exhaust tip but I have not gotten under the car to check other things for damage.

It sounds like its the exhaust hitting the suspension but I cant tell for sure. Anyone else notice this?

BTW: these guys prob weighed 170-190 each
