I've had a different hood rattle problem. When parked on an uneven surface I noticed that the front corner of the hood (driver's side) was up slightly 1/4". Turned out that side was not latched, no amount of pushing would get it to latch.
Here's my work around, maybe you have a better approach? Basically I cycle the problem latch: after unlatching, take a screwdriver and manually push the hook to the latched position and then pull the hood release. After that I can just drop the hood from abou 12" it it will latch on both sides.
Any ideas on how to fix this?

Thanks,
Bruce
