So I purchased my car back in June 2015. I am currently sitting at about 11.5k miles. I am not sure how long this has been happening as I generally have my music too loud to hear, but I know it has been for the last month or so.

Whenever I accelerate I hear this weird sound. I haven't been able to correlate it to anything except accelerating.

I feel I should get it checked out by the dealer, but I am afraid they might starting gouging me/my car for unnecessary things. I am not even sure what to tell them???

Anyone have any idea what might be causing this?

Sounds like something rattling could be pinging.
What kind of rpm were you at and how deep were you pressing on the gas pedal.
I sense LSPI.

I want to say around 1400, give or take. Couldn't really say how depressed the pedal was - definitely not the much. Just enough to get accelerating some

You sure that's not just the exhaust rattling some of the interior trim?

Sounds like an old creaky door. Maybe spring compressing and rebound? Kinds hard to tell but sounded like a lightly creaking door

I really hope it's just a rattle. It's super annoying! Makes my car sound lame when accelerating :( It doesn't sound like it's coming from the door. bleh!

I would double check to see if you have any loose or broken clamps in the engine or underneath the car. Happen to me in my old car. One of the clamps were rusted and was loose causing the rattling sound from the vibration of the car.

I didn't hear much in your video, my rear suspension would creak bad when cold right after I did my lowering springs, it was annoying but I kept forgetting about it as it would only do it in the mornings. it finally just went away a few weeks before I got the car on a lift to do my downpipe and exhaust.

Hi. Do you still have this video? The link wouldn't open. I have a noise around the same rpm and wanted to check if it's the same

Did anyone find out the solution to this inquiry? My vehicle is making the same sounds as initially described.
