ak can only hope to improve
it could also be your suspension. Something in my rear squeaks like a creepy house

I might get under the car someday and spray WD40 all over the place... lol

Yeah, I had a problem that sounds exactly like what your describing. Does it sound like it's coming from the exhaust? That's where my sound was coming from. I tightened the bolts that connect the axle back to the midpipe and the sound went away. This may be your problem. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/IMG]

I have the same problem, if you rev the engine a bit it goes away until it's back to idle again. I went under my car and it sounds like the exhaust. Mine also doesn't happen all the time.

i turned the car on in neutral it was rattling so i checked all hte bolts on the exhaust and it ended up being the bolt in front near the cat converter. the metal bolt was vibrating and hitting the metal piece above it so i just tightened it and bam. fixed.
