Okay,

I disassembled my 98C Pro last night clened it etc. after putting everything back together, it cocks and shoots fine. BUT I notice that the bolt rattles now, I noticed as well the arm that you pull back to cock the marker is loose.

Any idea what it is?

Perhaps you just didn't notice it before. As long as everything is hooked up correctly and your receiver bolts are snug, not overtightened, you should be fine. The bolt is semi free floating, so it will have some movement.
