Strange noise

So I just noticed a strange noise coming from my engine. When ever I accelerate at around 25 miles or so in 5th gear, and some times in 4th, it sounds almost like a can of change is being rattles around. I can't really tell where it's coming from, but it sounds like in front near in the engine. It even sounds like it might be a squeaky pully or something.

Why are you in 5th gear at 25? Assuming you mean 25 mph. Your lugging the engine pretty bad doing that, even in 4th gear. Not good for the motor.

Ya dont do that, its probably your engine telling you to quit that ****. honestly though, use the appropriate gear for the pull my friend. These cars make lots of weird noises. You will learn this my friend.

um, if you really were pulling 5th @ 25mph...rattling is really the least of your issues. nevermind the car, the shaking at that speed and gear would probably rattle your eyes out.

Only reason I was going that slow in 5th is I thought that I heard the noise going faster, but I couldn't tell over my exhaust. I think I found the problem though, it had to do with the exhaust. I'll be replacing it anyways. Thanks guys

Is it possible that it could be the diff pins? Either way, I am going to take it to the dealership on Wednesday and get it checked out/serviced.

Aftermarket catback. I got an exhaust leak check, and nothing. Im thinking that it might just be a heat shield.
