you cant be serious..

you take out 4 bolts and it comes out. 90% of the time its not the cat rattling, but the exhaust piping against the heat shield.

if you hear a cracking sound when your car is off from the exhaust it is usually a sign tha the cat has died.
Take it to a proper exhaust shop and get it checked out if its a problem.

I've found more often the cat has collapsed inside and then rattles. Exhaust place won't cost much to fit.

is this repairable or is it time for a new cat?
