I have a mounted microwave over the stove and every time I turn it on it rattles.....any ideas?

I had the same problem. Whenever I used my microwave, it started with a loud and annoying rattle / buzz that tapered off over the first 2 or 3 seconds.

I took off the microwave's bottom panel and discovered that the internal frame behind the control panel was bumping / vibrating against the side of the microwave. So I stuffed a couple pieces of paperboard in that crack, and the noises have been drastically diminished ever since.

My microwave is an Amana Radarange (model ACO1860AS), over the stove type.
