I just checked my relatively new (2 months old) 70-200 f/4 IS lens and when shaken there is movement within the lens.  I put it on my 70D and tested it - works fine.  I turned off IS, turned off the camera body, and removed the lens - the same movement was detectable.  So "something loose" is normal with this particular lens.
