Anyone's RX Catch Can make a loose rattling sound every now and then? Happened few week back then I drove it hard and it went away for weeks until now.

Could be the valve inside rattling.

Make sure your drain valve is closed....if accidently left open, the valve will rattle loud.

at idle, feel the end of the drain hose....should be NO suction.

I'm fairly certain it's closed. Closed being the screw valve is all the way out or extended. Reverse threading like a radiator. Nonetheless I'll check the vacuum. Interestingly it didn't make noise today.

Yup! Just like a radiator drain.
