Hi All! I just bought a beauty- 2012 Clear Sky Blue Forester X few months ago with only 33k miles! Love the vehicle, fun to drive, etc. Month or so ago, I notice a metallic rattling sound under the suv. I was told by mechanic acquaintance it was probably heat shield. I took it in (it's still under warranty), and was told by Subaru absolutely nothing was wrong with it and that all was tight underneath. However I still hear it, and it's driving me nuts!
I don't remember hearing it when I first bought it, and the sound happens loudest when I first start the car in the morning. When I rev engine, it gets louder. When I start driving, it stops.
Any ideas?? It's never been wrecked, and I've never taken it off road or anything like that- I baby it. Put about 10miles a day on it for work.
-Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

G'day & Welcome aboard.

Go back to the dealer and take them for a ride so they can hear the rattle.
