Loose heat shielding or possibly a failure with the flexible section of the exhaust. BMW will replace the flexible section under warranty but it needs specialist welding to be arranged which can take a couple of weeks.

Mine is going in for 2 days on 26th July to have this done and have the pedal box pivot bushes replaced.

A previous rattle I had was the heat shielding and I suspect this exhaust repair will cure the harsh rattle under throttle I have been getting as well as a tinny sound at idle.
