So I’ve been having this noise that started off very faint and got louder as the weeks progressed. I thought one of my coilovers lock ring came loose, after checking all of them and giving them a good tug nothing. I don’t know if it’s suspension noise. I was on Reddit and someone posted the exact same noise. It doesit taking off from a stop and driving through a parking lot, will do it if the road is uneaven but when hitting larger bumps at speed I don’t hear it. Will do it in gear or neutral. When I give the front and rear struts a good shake I don’t hear anything. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. I been wanting to go canyon carving but I’m kinda holding it off because I don’t want anything snapping off lol.

Does it go away when hitting the brakes?

Uncertain if it's the same- but I recently had to replace my rear brake calipers due to a metallic noise. The pistons were sticking causing the inside pads to wear. This is a pretty common problem with our cars.
In addition I would check end links and feel around the suspension if anything is loose. You mentioned coilers- could one of your top hats have come loose?
