noise please help

I have a weird noise kinda like a rattle/grinding coming from what sounds like under the console to passenger front seat. I first thought it might be a heat sheild, but its not. It only does it when the car is in gear with the brake on. Its really noticeable at stop lights.

I had a similar noise (from your description) and it was a loose exhaust flange between Y pipe and cat...

If I read you right, I have that exact noise. Look under your car, right behind the passenger side tire. There's a black plastic block, wiggle it. If it moves around that's your noise.
