Can't remember if there are 6 or 8 bolts/fixings holding on the undertray (think it is 8) but if they are all there it should stay on with no problem. Some people run their cars without the undertray, I felt safer with it on.

If the bolts are coming loose why not put a little threadlock on them although this seems a little odd as I used to put copper slip on the threads to make sure they were easier to come out.

I think this link from an earlier post should help highlight the fixings :-

4 bolts, 4 plastic press-in fixings and 2 plastic clips at the back (that also hold the front of the gearbox cover.)
The press-in trim studs have a habit of breaking eventually but I've never had a problem with anything coming loose!

Take it off and be done with it, plenty of folk here running without an under tray including myself, never caused an issue.
