Hi all

I purchased a used gts86 with automatic transmission from a dealer a week ago and I notice this light rattle between 2500 - 3000 RPM consistently during quick acceleration.It sounds like the rattle comes from the driver side. Also, there is NO rattle if I put the P mode and hand brake on and just revv the engine.

The rattle is pretty much identical to the sound produced from this video:

I have booked an appointment with Toyota this Thursday but I would much prefer to get some opinions from your guys about the nature of the rattle.

Thanks in advance!

P.S. Its a fantastic car but the rattle takes away the joy from riding it, since it can be consistently produced.
