I have a 2003 Mitsubishi eclipse gs. When I take off I hear a rattle.

It doesn't do it when I turn and I have checked my CV joints and there is no play. Ball joints?

Now it didnt start until after my radiator and oil filter leaks. The passenger side control arm is drenched in oil, could the oil have worked its way under and cause shifting? Because it only pops when i take off quick or hit my brakes harder than usual.
