- Heat Shield Rattle Fix Suggestions - I have a similar problem with my 1997 Outback which just started....after the car reached 300,000 miles. My mechanic thinks he can weld it if it won't cooperate any other way.

it's doing it again, but much worse now than before.. used to rattle only when revving the engine, now it's all the time. Seems like no one can tighten the heat sheilds down so they stay tight.
