Hello, I want to make CAN bus device to transmit CAN data to the CAN bus on a car. I have bought the MKR CAN Sheild and I want to know is there a list of what the shields are compatible with .I bought a Arduion UNO and a Mega 2560 and I thing they are not compatible with the MKR CAN shield ?

I'm not aware of an adapter shield for the Uno or the Mega that will take a MKR shield. There may be one out there.
The UNO and Mega are 5v systems, and i think that the MKR systems are 3v3 based. You could probably use level shifters to convert the data signals between the 2 systems.
Having said that, i think the MKR485 shield will work with an UNO or Mega without level shifters. You need to look at the schematic to see where to connect the supply to as i recall that you can put 5v onto the 3v3 supply - the 485 chip can run from 5v.
