04 si Hb BB's in the engine!

Hey all!

My 04 is doing great at 145k (owned since 80k), Check engine has been on once in the last 6 months but at idle or at a stop, I can hear (and feel slightly) a noise that sounds like a loose BB (as in BB gun) in the dryer. Its a little bit disconcerting but I havent noticed any loss of performance. Any thoughts??

I drive "normal" and take care of my car! When the check engine light was on i was told that it was the o2 but the light was turned off after checking it out!

Any help is appreciated!

I wonder if it's about to chuck a timing chain......or hatch a hole through the side of the block.

Or a simple exhaust rattle.
