2020 E63S Wagon exhaust rattle
Posted a similar question a couple of months ago, but didn't get any responses. Maybe there just weren't enough MY20 wagons in the wild yet for this to be noticed...so here goes again:
On startup, I get the normal deep exhaust sound, but in addition I hear a higher-pitched separate "rattle" (for lack of a better descriptor) coming from the exhaust area...it's a bit worse on COLD startup, but noticeable on ALL startups. Happens whether I am in normal or dynamic exhaust setting. Wondering if any one has noted something similar. I can live with it until my first service visit, but would be interested to know if it's more common...

Had an H-pipe rattle in my 2019 C63S - had the entire exhaust replaced
service advisor and tech both told me it isn’t an uncommon issue. Said they’ve warrantied exhausts from the GLE63S to the GTR
