If the problem is not the heat shields, what might the exhaust system problem be?

any exhaust holders are also capable of noise. but noises described over internet are pretty hard to translate into cause unless they are common enough to be well known.

I too have a 2012 elantra. This happened to me 3 months after I purchased my car off the lot. It was the heat shield, they welded it on 3 separate occassions. Finally it could not be welded anymore so they removed it!!! that was over 8 months ago. They said the part is on 'national back-order'. I will need to call them to check on the status. the mechanic is trying to tell me that is not needed. Come on now, I seriously doubt they will install parts which are not needed!!!
