hey all, over the past week or so, i've noticed a faint rattle that sounds like it's coming from underneath the front wheels. it's more noticeable when i'm going relatively slowly -- pulling out of a parking spot, accelerating from a traffic light, etc. it doesn't seem like i hear it as much at higher speeds, but i'm not entirely sure if that's due to other sound when traveling at higher speeds that drowns it out, or if it's something like the heat shield issue at low RPMS, which seemed to come up consistently when i searched about this on the .org. i have 79k on my 2009. anyone have any advice?

I don't know what it could be, but I have had success in finding rattling/things making noise by just getting under the car and looking/moving different parts. Just go through everything and see if it could make the noise. Just remember than a small noise when you move it could transfer to a louder noise under the weight of the car.

It is the heat shields on the y-pipe, or the bands at the flex pipe.
Educated guess, as mine were causing a lot of noise.
