Rattling sound when accelerating
#18
Thread is kind of old, but I heard a similar noise today. I can ONLY hear it when I'm driving in an enclosed space, like a parking garage or a narrow corridor. The sound is pretty horrible, only in first gear while accelerating, almost sounds like metal on metal. I just got the oil changed 800 miles ago so it better not be gone yet.

mine rattles pretty loud when accelerating from 1000 to 5000 rpm, mainly in gears 2-5. the rattle does not happen all the time but some days it rattles everytime i hit the gas. its very noticable and sounds like its coming from right under the dash...it only happens under acceleration. "coasting" at high rpm i cant hear the rattle until i press the gas. let off gas and rattle is gone. i do not have heat shields so that is not the problem...oil is fine also.
Do any of you guys with rattles have automatics?? i have a manual and i was thinking it may be a clutch/flywheel problem...

i also have this issue, it seems to happen when i accelerate from low rpms when i'm in a gear that's higher than ideal, like driving 20 some miles an hour in 3rd gear. it just rattles real low and loud until the rpms get to about 3-4K and then it goes away. if i shift down into 2nd year, it will also go away.
i have a 2006 6mt with 52K miles on it, not sure why it does this.

I have that same exhaust-type rattle when accelerating hard in lower gears, and also get a pretty similar rattle when dropping revs between like 2200-1800 rpm. Anyone else had that? That 2nd one I can reproduce standing still in neutral, so it's not the tranny or any moving parts. It all started happening after I replaced the cats, so it could either be the cats (hope not... Berk HFCs, anyone had problems?) or some other exhuast/heatshield problem. Now that it's getting to be windows down driving season again I need to get this thing fixed before it drives me insane. The exhaust sound is so perfect I hate to ruin the experience with this crap.
