Weird noise at 2000-3000 rpm?

[thatmk7]

My Gti has around 50,000 miles and the other day I noticed a noise I haven’t heard before. It sounds like a buzzing / rattling, i’ve tried to rev it and figure out where it’s coming from but I cannot replicate the sound while in park. It sounds like it’s coming from under the car almost but I could be wrong. I’ll try to include a video but it didn’t pick up the sound as well as I was hoping. https://youtube.com/shorts/C-bsSuX9wpg?feature=share

Dude could be literally anything. I started hearing a buzzing/rattling at idle the past few days. I suspected it was my IE intake support. Like a loose bolt or something. II think it went away now. Downpipe?

Anything in your cup holder? Lol, or center console, etc.

I'm in the same boat it sounds like it is in the passenger door or the A Pillar passenger side or somewhere close adjacent it almost sounds like a wire rattling around its been doing it since stock just never had it in me to take it apart

I have something similar. When accelerating over 70mph I have god awful vibration, it shakes the change in my cup holder, but I was thinking plugs/coils, wasn't sure.

I had the same rattle coming from the passenger side low. Turned out to be a fuel line or some other in the tunnel there. I solved this with expanding foam insulation sprayed into the tunnel.

Betting on alignment, wouldn't hurt to also have the tires inspected.
