Default RX330 metallic rattle with freezing temperature

It's been freezing here in Ontario Canada. I have been hearing a metallic buzz/rattle that comes and goes when the RPM is low . It happen no matter the car is in gear and moving or not. If you rep up the RPM the rattle will disappear for a while and then it will come back when you let off the gas and the RPM is running at near idle when you're coasting. The rattle is quick faint and you can only hear it when you turn off the fan completely. Could it be the fuel regulator. Maybe part of the whole ticking issue.
At least the Clunk on downshift is now gone with the fix I have posted before.
