    ok i need help because at this point i have no idea what it could be, whenever i have more than 2 ppl in the car with me and i have the windows down i can hear a scraping sound, and ive changed the shocks and the struts in the rear but i still have no idea what it could be, so yea when i go its just scraping, and when i slow down it stops untill i go again, and lets say im bymyself or something just driving around, if i like hit like a little dip on the road, when the cars weight transfers back down u hear an initial scrape. but yea any help would b appreciated cuz i would really like to know what the noise is. and btw its a 1994 V6 5-speed Mustang

    you may be scraping bottom with that many people. It would depend on how heavy the occupants are. Hitting bottom over a bump can be just cause your car is too low. Also I'd check to see if the exhaust piping may be sagging somewhere. It'll be kinda obvious if it is. If you're really concerned take it to a mechanic
