metallic rattling I have a metallic rattling/sounds like something is hitting the body when I start my car up. it will rattle for a few seconds hen stop, then 20 seconds later or so come back, then when i start driving goes away, and will come back when I shift sometimes. Very odd. shitty GM quality. anyone experienced this?

i have a similar sound from the engine bay/under the front left tire area i keep thinking it is the y pipe but i cant find anything. i do no mine is the exhaust but i just cant track that pesky thing down. good luck with urs post here or pm me if u figure out what it is so i can check mine. i have been trying to trace this sound since sept of last year. on a lift and on jack stands just cant find it.
I have a slight metallic grinding noise coming from under the car from what seems around the tranny area/exhaust area. It will start when its first start up or when car is cold and will go away after several miles. I park it for an hour and it comes back, I drive it a few miles back to work and its gone.

In the M6, if it sounds like a quiet knocking (like a very quiet bottom end knock), it might be in your TOB/pressure plate in the transmission.
