If the rattle is inside a muffler it could be a loose baffle.

Both
 If you tap the muffler first you will probably here which Baffle is loose, a sharp whack will take the rattle out, but really is just a temp fix eventually it will need replacement

Thanks whoosha I'll give it a go tomorrow after work.
... This could be a good reason to replace the whole system though... Any suggestions for what to get.. I'd be after Something quiet but a nice sound when the car is actually doing something... I hate the ones that are super loud even when slowly getting to the speed limit. Haha |
