My passenger sun visor rattles pretty bad sometimes. Fold it down and see if that fixes it. Just my .02

Sounds like the seatbelt is rubbing on the seat. I haven't experienced it yet, but try putting a cloth between them, on top the seat, next time. I even have residue where someone put sticky felt on the shoulder of my seat to fix it.
