Hey guys,
About two weeks ago I noticed a very strange noise coming from my engine bay. I only hear it when I'm going over 30mph though. I can't tell where it's coming from since the only time I can hear it is when I'm driving the car.

The rattling is very inconsistent... it is not the same tone/pitch at all times. Sometimes it's louder than others and sometimes it's quiet but it never shuts up.

Does anyone have an idea of what it could be?

I was told that my serpentine belt is fraying, could it be possible that is what's causing the noise?

Thanks for any help!

I found out the problem. One of the bolts that keeps the plastic engine cover down came out. I found a bolt of the same size and now the noise is completely gone.

Same problem here too except on my 03. The cover's plastic snaps are worn so bad that they are no longer tight. I started using bolts and nuts as replacements.
