Strange sound during deceleration
i have a '03 manual and recently changed the trans fluid to redline mt. Whenever I accelerate, lets say to 4k, i let off the throttle and the rpms start to drop as soon as the needle hits around 2.2k rpm there is a loud sound which continues till 2k rpm then the sound disappears.
The sound is very brief or rather not very audible at all during acceleration only once i left off the throttle. This happens in every gear at that specified rpm range. The sound seems like its coming from where the glove compartment would be in a normal car. (in front of the passenger)
Can anyone advise or shed some insight
I checked the trans fill/drain plug everything is good still no leaks

I have a similar noise (at least I have a metallic noise on deceleration between 2500 and 1200 rpm in all gears). It started after the clutch was replaced. The exhaust was dropped and after I got the car back it had a leak. Left it with the dealer to fix and when I got it back it had the noise. Wasn't that bad at first so I didn't take it back again, but it's got worse.
I believe it's a heat shield vibrating against the pipe. Haven't had an opportunity to put it up on stands to check.

I've been meaning to get the cats checked cause if I gun it I get a foul smell in the cabin. So could it be a probable car? Just strange to me how it only happens in that very specific narrow rpm range

here is what i would do..... get all four corners up in the air, bribe said semi drunk buddy to get under the car by the cats and see if hears it... may or may not without the resistance on the drivetrain and motor being up in the air... or just knock on them with you hand to see if you hear any rattles
