    Sounds like it could be a cracked flex plate.
    Easy enough to tell.... Just pull back the inspection cover,
    ...and look in there with a good flash light while a friend bumps the starter to get it to rotate around every now and again.
    You'll be looking for cracks around the mounting points.
    Here's a decent video of the process: [ame]https://youtu.be/k21NSEm96H8[/ame]

    good luck, hope this helps with the process of elimination.

    Would this happen from it just being parked though??

    When you checked the flexplate, does that mean you checked the torque converter bolts to the flexplate.

    If you take a plastic bag and waved it in the air real fast that's exactly what it sounds like! Park and neutral u have to rev it high to hear.. under load u can hear it almost as soon as u apply gas..
