Turns out the rattling was coming from the heatshield of the DPF so I spent a day replacing a part which wasn’t even the source of the issue. Well, atleast I’ve got a new exhaust now and did some underbody rust prevention while I was at it.

Oh to be handy. Nice work.
You usually don’t lose anything by at least trying to fix something that’s already broken. At worst it’ll just remain broken. Even if I don’t intend to repair it, I’ll still usually tend to disassemble it just to see what it looks like inside - and there’s often a part or two I can scavenge for the “DIY box” in case it comes in handy later. I also don’t worry too much about how pretty the fix is, as long as it works. Also, there’s instructions for almost everything online. Just go for it.
