320CE "Diesel" rattle when warm

Hi All

Have a rather annoying issue at the moment, when my 320CE is cold the motor sounds great at idle, nice and smooth and quiet.

As soon as it gets up to temp however it rattles like a diesel from idle until about 1500rpm.

I don't think it is tensioner shock as it would do it regardless if engine was hot or cold right?

Any ideas?

Cheers
Tom

Not sure, but I think it has something to do with the oil.
