Default What Could This Rattle Be?

I have stock exhaust with vap cats. I got my car back from the shop after 3 months and really don't feel like going back. Car started this weird rattle. Anyone know what it could be?

Could be something as simple as a heat shield rattle, those can manifest themselves into sounding like all sorts of other issues. Best to get underneath and make sure the myriad of heat shields along the exhaust system aren't loose. I believe the Rock had what he believed to be a drive line noise that turned out to be a heat shield rattle of sorts.

Thanks for the heads up. Hopefully something I can do myself. I can hear it when I'm driving and I don't like it lol
