What do you think about this sexy
 
Sound...?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IfRSD0-FMnc

Captured while driving, 3rd or 4th time it's happened. Tells you how long it happened that I had time to disconnect my phone, go to camera, go to video and record...

Any ideas???

No CELs that are stored...

loose body panels or bad clips maybe, my eclipse does this sometimes because most of the clipse are broken and you hear the body panels rubbing against each other(sounds kind of like your video)

it only did it on turns though and it wasnt very long(just 4-5 pops in rapid succession and it was done

were you making a turn while this was happening?
EDIT
just read the background on the thread, it could be low on oil(mine was low on oil once and it wouldnt idle properly but once the oil got up to temp it would run fine but i fixed that by pooring more oil into it)

Lol, oil level is fine, and it's definitely not body panels when the car shakes to hell and the CEL blinks

What about a bad cam position sensor?

When I had my 3.5 altima, the cam position sensor was bad and occasionally it would do what you were describing(as far as the shaking and noise goes, I don't remember if the cel blinked.

In your other post, you said, "...I ran REALLY low 4 days before, I was at about half a tank when it happened"

I would guess it's misfiring because it sucked up some of that water/sludge that collects in the bottom of the tank. Perhaps a fuel additive designed to remove water and other contaminants would help (Star Tron)?

You need to taser the hooker in the trunk 4 times not 2.

I was thinking that, and I've used SeaFoam and some other crap too with no avail
