the problem was the iacv and i just cleaned it like 5 times and put some oil on the gasket like you said and that fixed the problem and the rattle was my exhaust the bolts that hold the cat to the header were loose. so thanks for the help

yep, it prolly loses its seal when the IM gets hot... you can prolly just use some high temp silicone on it... also, check the rubber gasket for cracks/tares... the gasket isnt removable, it should be pinched on... if it is cracked or torn, it prolly wont be able to have a good seal...
