Default Exhaust noise when coasting

Have a 08 535. Whenever I lift off the gas with the throttle closed coasting, I get this vibrating noise from the exhaust. As soon as I go back to gas or full stop, the noise disappears. Only occurs when I am coasting. You can hear it very clearly when next to sound walls or concrete barriers.

Brought it to dealers attention, they always say nothing found. One SA did tell me there is a different path for the release of exhaust at different times. The noise is similar to a tinny vibration, not a metallic noise though.

Any thoughts? Thanks.
