That means something is loose.

I am going to have to agree with JRE on that one.....LOL!!:D :rolleyes:

Does it make the rattle noise at idle when your just sitting there in park? Or is the noise when you moving at a certain speed? There are a few things that could be making that noise. Either the shifter handle is loose, bad catalytic converter, loose linkage, and many more things. Just need to know a little more info!!!

sometimes it rattles like plastic on the stop, but rarly and its very light, but as soon as i step on the gas, then it rattles the most

Check whether you got something inside the handle or surrounding area that makes the noise. ;)

I got the same problem that irritating rattle. It just started a week ago. So how did the bushing replacement go?

The bushing cost only $0.50 ea. the labor is costly coz I replaced
mine a long time ago.
