Mine always did it on downshifting, decelerating, or going down a hill. Got worse with time. I tried everything I could reach. Ended up being the front bolt on the cat heat shield had broken off and the heat sheild itself would rattle at only certain times. The shield itself was rusting to the point of breaking in half, and that was why it kept getting worse over time. Replaced the heat shield and it sounds beautiful! Check that front bolt - best way to do it is to get under the car up by the front of the cat and pull down on the front tip of the heat shield to see if there is any play.
