Hey. Noticed this today, my car makes a short rattle on a cold start and when revving the engine when at normal operating temp. Comes from te front of car. Catalytic converter maybe? Here's a video.

Could be that you may need new gaskets that connect to converters to exhaust and make sure also the bolts are tight,loose connection can cause the rattle or a heat shield?

No clue. The exhaust is all stock still and the car only has 45k on it. Hoping the warranty will cover it if I take it in

Brand of oil/filter?  Doesn't sound like that type of rattle tho.

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

If you can remove the belly cover,bottom and inspect to see if anything fell inside?

Good idea!  Sometimes the bellypan does not get reinstalled correctly or a push pin falls out.
