I'll quote for emphasis. My car is remarkably free of creaks and groans. The only truly disturbing sound it has ever made was so bad I thought it was the death of the engine.

Turned out to be the clutch master return spring rattling at a specific frequency; at about where you describe. Still does it occasionally when it's hot.
