Not sure as it could be many things, but my 1994 rattles until it gets
up to temperature. I was told that it is the heat shield for the
catalytic converter. A mechanic told me I could rip it off, but I am
living with the rattle just in case I happen to park over something
combustible. I would hate to lose my car because I removed the heat
shield over a rattling noise.

2k Altima rattles when cold
My 2k Altima rattles when cold but quits when it warms up. I checked the
exhaust which seems a logical place to start but I cant find anything.
Can anyone help me out? Thanks much in advance for any advice.

If it is just the heat shield you should have no problem removing it. The
one on my 1995 altima was making noise and was removed about 6 years ago
and there has been no problem since. I've parked it in long grass, over
wood chip piles and any other number of burnable things and have had no
problem.
