More M157 issues :-(

Hi Guys,
Car: S63L W222 2016 (M157)
Has anyone heard this noise before? I only noticed this when I was showing of the noise of my car to a couple of friends.

When revving car makes a dump valve style noise, see video

Thing's I've already inspected:
  • No errors in Xentry.
  • Nothing out of the ordinary with belt or pulleys in engine bay, just had a quick visual look.
  • No issues with driving, car accelerates normal and fast.
  • No lights on the dash.
Any suggestions to where I can look?

Thanks

I’m thinking wastegate, might be helpful to seek some advice in the e63 section sharing the m157 engine, they may have more insight.

Is there a way to tell a wastegate is faulty?
I took a video and attached below:

And thanks I will create a thread there also

I wouldnt worry, I think everything is operating normally. Doesn't appear to be stuck open or closed, no codes/CEL , no feeling of lacking power/surge of power, and no noticeable MPG change?
