Just started, seems I press on gas, and I hear this loud rumbling noise in dash area, I release gas and it quiets down and then I drive along no problems as long as I excelerate slowly to get to the speed I want, I also had my muffler repaired about two weeks ago, they did a quick fix for now by placing a new piece of pipe where it came apart..could it be the drive train, transmission, I really don't know any help would be great...thanks a ton.

I haven't tried it in nuetral, I will find out and then post to let you know, it really isn't a high pitch sound more if ya have something loose somewhere around the dash board and it's just like a loud vibration, rumbling but only for a second till I release the gas and it's then quiet...cars, I know how to put gas in them...:) Thanks, will let you know about the nuetral thing...
