Sounds like something may have come loose and it rattling around in your rear end. Not rattling really...but slightly hitting another metal object just enougb to cause a ringing.

If it only happens at idle it can't be anything in the rearend, unless you mean while the car is idling down the road?

3rd vote for the fuel pump. If it's making noise it's ready to go south.
