3 months ago it started rattling 3 days after I bought it. Turned out to be the water pump. Now it's making a noise again. Any thoughts to what it could be? Here is the audio:

PO said the idler pulley had been changed. Alternator has been rebuilt (bearings included). Clutch in or out does not make a difference.

Thanks.
