Default The star "nuts" rust...

and don't necessarily hold very well to begin with. I used some Shoe Goo (it's like a heavy duty RTV silicone) between the heat shield and the body at a few points.

I'm assuming it's the heatshield above the exhaust pipe, not above the muffler, since that one is bolted.

Also, the splash shields on the rear brakes can rattle against the the control arm attachment points - put some Shoe Goo in there too to quiet it down.
