As the title says, i'm hearing a rattling noise, usually around RPM's over 3k and when i undershift sometimes. it's coming from the front passenger side, i'm thinking it's the caliper because one of the bolts that closes it is twisting so i cant take it off when im changing my pads, i have to slide it in, could it be the caliper? I've also been having a problem with the rotor on that side sliding against the pad, so i'm thinking it could be that too... could it be my tranny? or could it be the rotor/caliper?
Thanks always HT
edit: the rattling sounds kinda like something's overspinning and immediately stops when i let go of the gas

 

It could just be the heat shield for the down pipe.

 

doesn't sound brake/suspension related if it stops when let off the gas,
have you checked all of your exhaust?

 

I dont even know what im looking for.. it all looks bolted on tight though..

 

Don't just look though, jack up the car, and get your hands on it, shake each piece.
Then you'll have a much better idea if it's the exhaust or not,
also, if you're sitting still and rev the car, will it rattle, or is it only when you're moving?

 

Don't do what the above poster said right after driving or while car is on.


It needs to cool down.

Lol, I would hope he'd have enough sense to not do it while Hot.

It's only when im going, which is why i think it's a brake problem @_@

 

My cat rattled crazy around 3k-4k when i would let rev-match into a low gear in high rpm i would let it drop to 4k and it would start to rattle. I just recently installed my test pipe. Try checking your cat or your exhaust pipes.

 

My cat seems ok, everything's bolted on tight..

it could be from inside the cat.

 

Try jacking your front up and spinning the tires?

 

jack the car up.. bang around with your hand and feel everything.. check all nuts and bolts.

i had this rattle for the past few days, turned out to be a bunch of rocks got up under the cover that covers the gas fill neck.
