So tonight I noticed my car making a rattling sound when accelerating. I’m not sure how long it’s been doing this because I usually have my radio up pretty loud but I noticed it leaving a stop. It only does it between 1500-2000 RPMS and the only thing I know that it sounds like is when the cam phasers went out in my 5.4 F-150. I can replicate it with no problem by just cruising with the engine at a slight load and it starts rattling like a fan hitting almost. Any idea where I should start scoping out this issue?

Check the oil in the morning before starting the car.
