Grinding metal on metal sound when accelerating only
Hello guys as you can see in the linked below video i have this grinding metal on metal sound when accelerating specially above 2k rpm and only if the car is moving ( no matter at what speed ) it will make the same noise above 2 k rpm below that no noise at all

From what I can hear on the video, it sounds similar to what I had. It turned out to be the collars on either side of the catalytic converter (I think). They had rusted/broken loose, so when you're accelerating, the engine shifts back and causes those rings to move back and jingle.
I know it sounds crazy, but crawl under there and check it out. I ended up carefully cutting them off with a grinding wheel and haven't had an issue since then.
