So what was the problem of the engine rattle? I have the same engine and the same sound.

Mine sounds like that too...I thought it was the injectors? Apparently they're noisy engines....

Mine is also quite noisy and I think it is injectors as well. Try a long reach screwdriver held to your ear to locate the noise but avoid the electrics :yikes:

Hey guys the noise I was originally worried about was a rattle that I could hear inside the car coming from the engine increasing with revs but I wiggled a few things in the engine bay which fixed it, Engine is still noisy like in video so yeah think that's just the injectors.
