nasty rattle

[ludaprix]

hiya guys, was driving around tonight and went over some pretty big bumps and they scrapped the bottom of the car a little. when i came to a stop (the friendly cops stopped me to do a 'routine' check) there was a nasty rattle coming from under the car, seemed metallic but not 100%, its only happening sometimes when i come to a stop not whilst driving, anyone got any ideas?

Heat shields?

Would be my guess, had mine replaced under waranty and was told very common

this jus happened after i went over the bumps though?i was thinking the decat pipe or exhuast?

Could be, my heat shield sheared its bolt of though so could be that this bump finished them off. Have a look under you car at the back, it will be obvious if it is the shield as you will be able to move it around.
