Is this the notorious 2K rattle or is this something to be concerned about? I feel like this has gotten much more noticeable the last few months.

Hard to tell on the video, 2k rattle is best heard while driving, light throttle -- almost coasting along with the rpms right around 2000 rpm. You can hear it then most when the engine is cold.

Kinda sounds like the sound mine makes but it's only when coming down from 3k rpm to about 2k

I also hear it really loud when coasting down around 35mph I have a video posted on here but after posting it twice I've gotten no responses so I have no idea. Car runs fine, jacked it up and nothing feels loose underneath

Sound is coming from the rear in my car but that's probably because it's coming from the motor through the exhaust

This car rattles more than my 230k mile 28 year old f150 5.0

I think I heard it a little there. Best way I can describe the 2k rattle, is that it momentarily sounds like a diesel engine with slight on or off throttle between 2-3k. It stops with zero throttle or with aggressive throttle, and is more prominent with a cold engine.
