Strange vibration/rattle when stopping or nose down

O.k, one more...
When i stop there is a vibration and noise and its not from the brakes...
same thing happens when the car is going downhill, i.e when nose is down.
Rattle is coming from the right side (lhd car) and it can be felt in the seat if you put your hand on it.
I've changed the engine mount to a different brand (German). it halped a bit but didnt cure it.
Its very clear that something in the engine compartment is touching the body in this position, but what can this be?!!
Thanks

Get it on a ramp and have it inspected.

I would [as above ] lift it up and check the prop shaft coupling ,,both front and rear, along with the centre bearing and transmission mounting . Any splits in prop shaft rubber mounting are found ,,replacement is paramount .If it comes apart it can damage transmission and the bottom of the car .
