hi i have a metallic shearing / scraping noise on decceleration, the car drives and runs perfectly. This noise does not happen on braking just when i lift my foot of the accelerator and is not constant, thanks

Have the brake pads inspected as they do have metal wear tabs that can make this noise as a warning that brakes are low, just as a starting point look at this first.
