Ok sometimes whem im in a stop sign my muffler rattles, making an odd noise like a rumblin noise and it feels like the car is going to turn off, it also idles loud then it goes away also when the car is cold in the morning and I take off it makes a rattling noise it sound like the cat, but I just replaced it and I got my whole car checked out at midas and they said my exhaust system is fine it could probably be the after market muffler when I got the car it has a bootleg aftermarket muffler that makes noise,
 
Sounds like a cheap after market muffler. When you use cheap after market parts there is problems.

I would recommend getting either a Honda Muffler installed or a good quality aftermarket muffler.

There could also be the "universal" muffler problem. That manufacturers use very similar mufflers for many different models and makes. So some cheap aftermarket suppliers make their own generic universal to try work on many more models that manufacturer did not intend.

Sometimes people use "universal" mufflers to save over more expensive oem style mufflers.
