My car is making a rattling noise but it will only do it with the transmission in gear. Its very noticeable at idle and stops around 1500 rpms. I have tried to pinpoint it but have not had any success. Any ideas?

Have you checked to see if the cat is broken loose and rattling?Also have you inspected the upper engine mount the one by the valve cover and coolant bottle for being torn and colasped?Also the lower transmission mount for being colasped and torn loose?That's where i would start.
