My 740il had a tigh rod replaced alignment , and al that good stuff tires balanced , and the good thing is the previous owner payed for all that 11 hundred dollers was the total , now the rattle fades away at operating temperature ,it must be some bolt that gets hot expands and tightens something , but my bigger guess is that my atf which is for the powersteering and tranmission has air bubbles in it
what can it be ....
