Thanks for replies. I got my dealer to repair mine under CarMax service agreement. It was a bummer to find a $200 deductible I had to pay, while my 2004Z was always $50 deductible with what I thought was this same contract.
The car shifts much smoother, and the rattle is gone.

I believe the rattle's root cause is driveshaft vibration.
I never had a shifter vibration but recently bent the aftermarket driveshaft in my car. I started getting a shifter rattle so I installed the C6 shifter box, which helped but I still felt like there was a problem. Replaced the driveshaft and it's dead smooth, zero vibration or rattle.
I don't think any real vibration comes from the trans itself as it's the same trans in many other RWD cars and they emit zero vibration through the shifter.
