Is yours sound like a heavy thing jumping up and down when you pass over pavement upward bulges?

My engine rattle comes from the air filter. The inlet tube(the kinda spirally black plastic piece in front of the actual air box) is loose(broken?) and vibrates against the airbox with the engine vibration. I'm gonna epoxy it some day, but I'm pretty lazy.

I also have the rattle from the TSB, but that one is clearly coming from the dash, not the engine.

I don't think so. Never realized how hard describing sounds are. I don't know what it could be.
