Rattle when accelorating
Hello,
I recently purchased a 2002 Disco 2 with 191,000 miles for a $1000. It runs pretty good considering the mileage. Recently I have noticed a rattle like sound when accelerating and also when stopped and in drive. The rattle stops when I am cruising at speed and when in park. It also doesn't happen for the first couple of minutes when the engine is warming up.
Does anyone have any ideas of what this might be?

So I gave my cats a good look and I'm still not sure if that is the problem. A little more info on the rattle... It starts after the vehicle is warmed up. It only happens when accelerating or stopped. If the car is running and in park the rattle stops. If the car is in neutral the rattle stops. But as soon as I shift into drive the rattles starts back up. Does that still sound like something the cats could cause?

could be transfer case or driveshafts, rattling a bit when in gear.... have you greased your driveshafts lately...or put a heavier weight oil into transfer case?
Hopefully not the trans.....
Yes, you could have this sound from cats when in drive because the engine load changes a bit and therefore engine vibrations change a bit too... do the mallet test.
