The "almost rattling" noise is most likely the heat shield for the catalytic converter. These will rust or corrode a little over time and become loose. Take it to a mechanic and have them check this out. It shouldn't cost much

plainly the serpentine belt could be bumped off and each and all the pulleys could be spun via hand to work out if the water-pump bearings, capacity guidance pump, alternator bearings and air-conditioner bearings, serpentine belt tensioner pulley, and or the different loafer pulleys are ok. *start up the engine with the belt off and hear for the noise. probable the serpentine belt tensioner spring is vulnerable permitting the belt to slide interior the pulleys. generally this occurs appropriate after start up-up while there is greater load on the alternator pulley led to via greater amperage of the alternator recharging the battery. make sure the capacity -guidance pump reservoir is crammed to the suited point with the authorized fluid. to envision the air conditioner take carry of disconnect the electrical powered connection on the pump itself and initiate up the engine with the belt on.

if it is a tinny sound then it is surely an exterior component and no worries. If it is a deep knocking sound then your engine oil has been low for some time and the internal engine components (pistons rods crankshaft etc) are already grinding into the cylinder bores and it is getting ready to explode. Check your oil NOW!!!!!!!!!!!
