2006 cgt rattle/hiss in exhaust
My 2006 cgt has a rattle or hiss in right exhaust pipe only upon starting for about 5 seconds. Is this normal or something related to exhaust flaps?

Normal as I recall. I think you may be hearing the air pump. I do know the first few seconds or so some items 'open up' for initial warm-up.

UPDATE ON EXHAUST RATTLE:
The rattle in right tailpipe no longer goes away after running a few seconds. I pushed a wooden stick about 12 inches into the pipe and it hits a baffle on a swivel causing it to open and eliminates rattle. Left tailpipe baffle seems to be open all the time. Baffle is likely in rear muffler. Seems to be a noise suppression of some kind. Anyone have this issue? Is there a fix short of replacing an otherwise functioning muffler?
