Also check for cracking on the pipe where it mounts to the transmission and on the resonator can support. I had both of these fail and each caused a rattling noise on cold start.
Seriously? I just bought one second hand with the old style can res. Only has 4k miles on it. Thought I was getting a good deal. This makes me feel like S**t. Guess I shoulda researched more into them.
