Default pedal clicking/rattling

I have a weird rattle and clicking sound from my clutch/accel/brake pedals when driving. It sometimes can be felt in the steering wheel as well. I have no idea what it is. I had a shop check my suspension and all is well. I secured my HID ballasts and they are secure.

This happens at all speeds and seems to happen when running over small bumps or slowing to a stop. No rhythm to it, just random. I held my keys and it didn't help...

Any thoughts?

This should keep ya busy for awhile, but I will note that a bad steering box and shot tie rod/drag link ends can cause the same sensation.

I doubt it is my steering. Would it make rattling pedals?

I did the steering wheel shaft fix. The steering wheel no longer clunks, but my pedals do. It's driving me batty.

Any thoughts? Doors have been taped, steering greased, driveshafts checked and good, shock bushings replaced....

Heat shield doesn't seem to be rattling.
