okay, so i started my car.. fired up normally but started hearing this nasty rattle sound coming from the engine.. got out and looked around.. couldn't find anything till i got in the car and stuck it in gear.. it stopped. what can this be?
 
The engine stopped or the noise stopped?

I know you thought it was coming from the back, but sounds travel in stange ways. ABS pump maybe? The other thing that comes to mind is the throw out bearing...usually that makes noise when the clutch pedal is in.
