Clatter when coming off the accelerator...

Well I had two days of zero worries!

I'm thinking it's hopefully something as simple as a heat shield so I'll have a nosy when I can but just in case it's a known problem:
Loud metallic clatter, almost like dragging a heat shield on the floor (it isn't). Happens whether warm or cold, only when coming off the accelerator abruptly, for a about a second. If you ease off it, no noise. No abnormal noise on start up / idle / any other time.

I believe has been issues with the “skins” in the manifolds/ heat shields separating and causing a vibration / clatter, but the only one I’ve heard had it on start up and running..
