I've got a sound I cant find or figure out. Only happens around 50+ mph. it's not a metallic rattle and it isnt accompanied by any shaking or imbalance in the car; sounds like a dull plastic slapping but again only north of 50mph. It almost sounds like the airdam flapping but I have cushioned and secured everything plastic underneath including the sideskirts in the wheel wells. No missing clips anywhere front or back. If I put the car in neutral the sound doesnt change and it doesnt vary with engine rpm. Nothing rattles when I go over bumps either, car is tight.

Welcome to the forum. Word to the wise, do not assume that this problem is exclusive to your model year.

I'm not a betting man, but 99 out of 100 times when someone posts about "a rattling noise" it's the heat shield.
With the Rogue (regardless of year or generation) there's generally two causes for a rattling sound. It's either the Heat Shield or the CVT. In order to figure out exactly what you think you're hearing please read here:

Have you SEARCHED the forum for possible answers? There's lots of discussion on 'rattles', so I've narrowed down the search for you.
