Hey guys when I start my car I here a little rattle sound. Most of the time when I start the car not always.

Also when I rev my car anywhere from 3.5k+ RPM's it makes another rattling sound.

I stopped at a light earlier as well, and the car started rattling, when i switched the gear into neutral it stopped rattling. Any clue what this can be?

Its a 95 eclipse non turbo, automatic.

Here is a video of the sound when I start the car then rev it:

Thanks in advance for any help...

BTW the guy giving his opinion at the end just said what he thought (hes not a mechanic nor did he ever work on a car)
 
Sounds like possibly under your transmission on the crank side, theres a little shield and sometimes the bolts come loose and causes chatter. Just check for loose bolts.

Or possibly a bad motor mount, check for that as well.
