Question 45e ICE idle noise

Hi.

Looking for another 45e owner to compare the sound of their ICE engine at warm idle.

Coming from an M3, which could sound like a diesel when cold, the IL6 in my 45e seems really noisy at idle, and I'm wondering if something is wrong?
It is not what I expected from a detuned 3.0, and I want to stress this is how it sounds after the engine is warmed through thoroughly.

When driving it sounds fine from inside the car, and pulls hard without vibration.
