Like suggested by 78F350, if is a heat shield it will be way easier to find, bottom line you need to get your hands a little dirty and you may have to remove the rear exhaust to properly get the heatshield properly welded again. Or better yet get a SpeedArt Sport exhaust, you will get rid of the rattle and get an awesome sound without drone.

Saludos de California :-)

PS: En que parte de España vives?

A friend of mine has his own workshop/garage, next week he's kindly going to get the cars' rear up slightly to make it easier to determine where is rattling.

I'm based in the Tarragona area of Catalonia. I'm not Spanish though, I'm British hehe! I am fluent in Spanish though!

Thanks for the help!
