Talking new rattle discovered today

Happens when I shut any of the doors, so I went under, my wife shut the door and guess what it's the fuel tank heat shield. Now I get to figure out how to stop that

Good find...I'll have to check mine next time i'm under there. I think that's what clanks around when I go over large bumps.

I just discovered my spare had come a little loose and was banging when I went over bumps and stuff. Check there, too.
