Actually, the steering won't rattle. Take a rubber mallot and tap on the exhaust. Chances are there is a heat shield ratteling. Also, check the catylatic converter to make sure the insides didn't come loose. As far as the steering wheel shaking, are you sure it isn't from the engine running rough at an idle? Does it to it when you are not sitting? If so, is it all of the time or at certain times?

Let me know.
