Why is my Audi A5 producing a rattling sound?

I recently purchased a used Audi A5 and noticed that it makes a rattling sound whenever I accelerate. Is this a common issue with this model? Should I be concerned about the engine or other components?

It is not uncommon for older Audi A5 models to experience a rattling sound while accelerating. This could be due to a loose exhaust heat shield, worn out engine mounts, or a faulty catalytic converter. It is important to get this checked by a mechanic to determine the exact cause and make necessary repairs.
