Advice on how to stop "oilcanning" of forced air furnace

Can you explain how I can fix the loud bang that my forced air furnace does after it cycles. It is a 8 month old new build house with Rheem Classic Series: Up to 95% AFUE Single-Stage PSC Motor gas furnace. After is cycles and turns off there is a loud bang anywhere from 30 seconds to 4 minutes afterwards. There is also a consistant clicking noise that is most pronounced at end of the duct about a 20 foot straight run from the furnace. It can be heard in the family room and a second floor bedroom vents. The HVAC installer came about 5 months ago and determined that it was "oilcanning". He cut two square holes and repaired the holes but the noise continues.

Any advice on how I can stop the noise?
