I drive a 2004 ford explorer 4.0 SOHC 4wd. about a week ago I noticed a loud rattle on start up and I was convinced it was timing chain tensioner or a bad starter bendex. I finally realized it was the passenger side catalytic converter making the noise, I saw that a lot of times its the heat shield that rattles but on mine it appears the clamp is good and the heat shield is sturdy. Any idea on what could be wrong? does it need to be replaced? Thanks in advance
