Alright so, a few weeks ago, I started to notice a rattlesnake sound coming from the outside of the car. At first, I thought it was just brake shims that were rubbing on the disk and making that sound but, turns out, it's linked directly to the engine's RPM.

From what I've noticed, it seems like it's not as intense when the engine oil is at around 90c or above.

Any idea what that sound could be? What should I check?

Most importantly, IS MY ENGINE OR TRANS GOING TO BLOW UP?
