Crazy rattling noise! *VIDEO INCLUDED* take a listen....
Hey guys... 04 MT RX8 w/ 102,5xx miles. Few days ago I noticed a weird rattling noise coming from either the engine bay ... or sometimes kinda sounds like its coming from underneath. Sounds like its coming from the passenger side.
Noise comes while accelerating mostly but I've noticed it while coasting too. Its not the Marbles in a Can symptom. I had that before and problem went away when they replaced my engine core at 86,000 miles.
Take a listen... any ideas? THX greatly in advance!

Hum I have new reman with 2500 miles on it and it make similar rattle. I suspect maybe the motor mount on the exhaust side is peter'ing out. lol... Engine shakes a tiny bit. I like shake so to me it's a feature lol. There is a new part out if it turns out you need to replace that is better part.

Just wanted to help describe the rattling noise its making. I suspected motor mounts when I first heard it a few days ago so I searched a bit on it... but wanted to get different opinions. I havent had the chance to jack her up and get under there...
Might end up taking it in to the dealer see what they say...
