Engine rattle during elevated drving conditions

I have a Maxima2000 and it is an awesome machine and I just love my baby.... On a recent trip to Lake Tahoe, I heard some rattle from the engine (like a loose nut, bolt ...) when I was traversing elevated sections of the highway. I don't experience the problem drives to work/normal highway drives.

Do I need to check this out with a dealership or is there something I could do to identify the problem?

Suggestions please....

engine pinging under load? You may need new ignition coils... there is a TSB on them.
