R56 boost flutters

I've browsed around and I don't think I'm the only one who has suffered this problem.

My 2011 R56 just started doing this weird thing where it makes a really loud "fluttering" noise when the boost pressure is released. It holds boost very well and it runs perfectly fine but the noise is atrocious and I'm pretty sure this is a indicator that something is going to break or fail.

The only mod I've done to it is a K&N CAI.

I'm thinking it might be the diverter valve. Also, there's no codes or MIL

Thanks in advance!!!
