Ratteling Sound From Passenger Side

Hello,

I recently purchased a 2011 BMW X6 x35i and was wondering if you could help me figuring out what might be the cause of the following rattling noise:
Rattling Noise Vimeo Link


The noise comes in from the passenger side of the engine.
The rattling occurs when
  • The vehicle is idling
  • When driving at low revs (between 1000 and 2000)

The noise goes away when I floor the gas pedal.

I am taking the vehicle back to the mechanic during the weekend but I just wanted to make sure that I can keep driving the vehicle until then.

Thank you very much

since everything is fine except the noise.. sounds more like some faulty joint or misplaced heat shields on the exhaust system..
