Battery needed to be changed, if the headlights were left on with the car off, the battery would die within 10 minuets, not the fault of the car, just a crappy battery I'm not sure if it was the original battery or if had been replaced by the previous owner.
Muffler rattles, it may just be a loose heat shield or something like that, not a big deal. I'l fix it when I get a chance.
