Rep Power: 0 Check out the rubber stoppers on the hood/on the frame under the hood, see if you are missing those or not. If you cant find them, let me know, I will take a pic of some on my car. You also might want to check out to see where it is rattling. Check the bolts on the hinges, also the latch.

Rep Power: 324 You might want to check the torque on the bolts holding on the hood. They might've become loose over time, bumps, etc. I don't see how in only 16k miles, but who knows. Stranger things have happened.

Rep Power: 0 I had the same problem when some one jumped on my hood, it broke the joints holding the hood to the frame. It rattles when ever the tac drops below 900. Luckily i am getting a new hood soon so this should fix the problem.
