When I start my cirrus there is a disturbing shake while I am turning car over. It cranks right up just sounds like it has something wrong with starter or motor mounts, but not sure because there is a noise that sounds like a marble dancing around under the hood also. Any help would be appreciated. Sound fine when giiving acceleration no rattle just when you released the gas you can hear rattle good

Sounds like a loose exhaust of heat sheild component.

Take a rubber mallet or similiar and rap on the exahst at various places to see if you can duplicate the noise. Make one of the places you rap on be the converter.
