| Description of the problem | Vehicle was stationary when started up. The engine started the rattle while in idle. After letting the car sit for 10 minutes, proceeded to drive normally. The engine would then rattle during acceleration and applying more rpms. The rattle was directly related to applying more pressure to the gas pedal. This car has 12322 miles and the rattle started to occur at 12000 miles to the best of my knowledge. Vehicle was started in driveway and rattle was heard at intersection and then later on highway.
