This happens at any speed but at exactly around 1,500 rpm it comes from the drivers side and is very loud. But below or above those rpm's it goes away. When it does make that sound I feel a little vibration in the gas pedal.

Hello,

It sounds like a heat shield or brace has come loose causing the vibration. I would lift the hood and have someone hold the RPM's up so you can see where the noise/vibration is coming from. Can you please shoot a quick video with your phone so we can hear the noise? That would be great. You can upload it here with your response.

Please let us know what you find. We are interested to see what it is.

Cheers, Ken

Perfect video BTW. Yep, that is a heat shield or bracket rattle. Open the hood and do this same thing (have someone hold the engine RPM's while you look). Please do another video with the hood open. Also, check under the car as well to see where the noise is loudest.
