Default Rattling on passenger side???

I have this annoying rattling sound on the passenger side. At first I thought it was the new brake pads so today I bled them again, but it still does it. I checked for play in the 12 and 6 o'clock position and its stiff. I just replaced the inner tie rod.... Could it be the bearings?

Another thing it goes away when I press on the brakes, and doesnt start until I am driving for about 5 minutes.

well i dont know about you cause you have a fox... but it sounds like the exact same problem i had, the hanger on my exhaust pipe was rattling agaist the brace on the gas tank, which was metal... i would check that, if its the same as mine the hanger shouldnt be touching the gas tank at all..
