Default Slight Rattling (Grinding) Noise

Hey guys, the last couple of days or so I'm hearing a Slight Rattling (Grinding) Noise coming from the back of the car when I'm in a turn or in "Drive" (automatic) and I have the brakes on. And when I start to roll, it goes away. Have any of you guys experienced any like that? What might it be? It sounds kinda like its coming the the rear passager side (underneath).

I had a similar noise on mine and it was the exhaust pipe hanger there at the back of the car (it was on the passenger side too). The part that is welded to the pipe itself and goes into the rubber isolator was slightly rubbing on the edge of the gas tank. I just took an adjustable wrench and easily bent the edge of the tank up a little to provide a little more clearance. Problem solved. Don't know if it is the same problem, but maybe check it out.

hey, i have a similar problem but its comin from my motor. the car runs fine but i can barely hear it. if you just drive and listen you will hear it. oh and i have another problem, when i start up my car and just put it in reverse without letting it warm up *say if i move my car outta the driveway to wash another car* i hear a pop noise comin from the rear, sounds like maybe u-joints? not sure, but if it warms up it doesnt do it. any suggestions on my two probs?

Is the grinding noise throughout the RPM range?
