Re: New sound

The rattling could be from the exhaust system like heat shields, harmonic balancer at the front of the crankshaft, any pulleys in the serpentine drive belt system, A/C clutch, or even a torque converter flex plate so it is important to try to isolate the specific location of the noise although it is not easy to do at times.
