Exhaust rattle (not a heat shield) - Toyota Yaris Forums

So I get this exhaust rattle at low rpms 5-600rpm at idle with engine at normal operating temp

I went to a garage, lifted the car. Removed 2 loose heatshields and the rattle was still present

We managed to get rid of the sound by pulling downwards the 2 brackets that support the exhaust with rubber

It seems like the sound is was coming from the inside of the car which doesn't seem to be damaged (no scratches or visible damage)

It still does it but very slightly barely noticeable

I refuse to think that the cat is dieing on me the car has only 60000miles

Any suggestions?
