I had two rattles in this area of my '01 SE:
1. I had the exact same "parcel shelf rattle" problem for 6 -8 months and it drove me "slowly crazy." Despite several attemps, the dealer could not find a cause. Finally, one of the techncians asked around and fixed the rattle by screwing the trunk adjustment screws all the way down. These are the screws that are visible as part of the hinge assembly when the trunk lid is raised all the way up.
2. The plastic box that houses the OnStar equipment is monted under the parcel shelf/rear deck. Mine was loose and would cause a different rattle/buzz. Once the bolts were tightened the rattle/buzz went away.
Once these two things were fixed, my opinion of the car climbed significantly. a car in this class should not rattle.
