Rattle - well they do that with the injectors but usually under load rather than deceleration. If it was injector rattle you'd hear it under acceleration and only at some RPM. Mine you hear the rattle start and if you accelerate harder is sort of passes through the rattly bit and comes out the other side.
Whirring could be the turbo. As you come off boost you sometimes get a skittering sort of noise. In my case it was louder once I installed the snorkel.
But as said grinding? I wouldn't call anything I normally hear from mine a grinding noise.
The other problem obviously is that we all perceive and describe things differently. Your probably sitting there reading this thinking WTF does he mean by a skittering noise for example.
