I have been experiencing a rattling noise when I turn off the engine.....I don't hear the rattling noise when turning off the engine with the clutch pressed in. Is the Dual Mass Flywheel bad?

You have to do more than just change the brake fluid you need to after you have gone around the car in the proper sequence and flushed/bled every caliper then you need to flush/bleed the clutch slave cylinder.
I understand on what all you have to do when changing the brake fluid. Each caliper in the proper sequence was bled using my vacuum pump, and the slave cylinder for the clutch was also bled.
Without being able to hear the noise -- and this is not a subtle or not so subtle hint to provide one -- it is impossible to make any judgement call about the severity or urgency of the noise, what may be at its root cause. My advice is you have this checked out by a qualified Porsche tech, get his opinion.
I talked to a Porsche Tech and he sees where a spring or springs on the DMF jumps off and causing this type of rattle. He will be seeing the car today
33K miles is not a lot of miles. There is AFAIK no requirement to change/replace the transmission fluid based on time. 'course, I'm a fan of early/more aggressive fluid
change schedules and I'm OK with an early fluid change to see if it has any positive effect on the noise. For my 2002 Boxster the shop time to replace the 5-speed transmission fluid was just 0.3 hours. While the fluid is a bit pricey it is not like one is having to buy this all the time. The transmission fluid service for my Boxster was the least expensive service.
My 04 since new has had the oil changed along with a new filter every 5k miles. It also has been kept in a climate controlled atmosphere since new. I recently did the 30k maintenance. Plugs, all the Filters, drive belt. and fresh engine oil. However I have never changed the Transmission fluid. My brake pads and disc are like new and never been changed. I might add I never abuse my car, but enjoy it's willingness to do what I what it to do. It does get a lot of TLC. At 59k new, it looks new today.
Assuming no leak or a prior improper fluid service that left the level low and these transmissions do not "use" oil/transmission fluid, so what makes you think the transmission fluid is low? Certainly if the fluid level is low there is less fluid to act as a dampener and to keep the the transmission internals from rattling around.
I feel certain the fluid level is OK in the transmission. However I plan on changing it myself ASAP. My 6 speed gets new oil until it flows back from the opening. Your 5 speed is a little different.
If the fluid is low this needs to be addressed and just as important the reason why it is low needs to be addressed.

I recently spoke to a Porsche Tech at a Dealership while picking up a part about the rattle I was experiencing. The DMF was mentioned, clutch in switch off, no rattle, clutch out switch off the rattle. No mention of the Transmission. He ruled out the DMF. The tech said it could be a rusty release bearing. Anyone ever have a rusty throw out bearing making a noise?.
