Default Engine rattle
I have a 5.0 engine in my 2014. My engine sounds like I have rattling valves while in 6th gear and at 1500 rpm. Stops rattling when I accelerate. Sound like valves or another issue?

Running cheap fuel? They are running a summer blend right now so it is more likely to ping. mine starting pinging when they switched over ive been running 91 and it fixed it.

It does sound like it might be ping. Try some 91 or 93 whichever you have and see if it goes away.
