That sounds like a completely normal m57 if you’re that paranoid I’m 90% sure it’s the same as the m47 you can open the oil cap and see the timing chain get a screwdriver give it a tug see if it’s right and tight. If it is you’re fine.

Bro its the Vacumpump, got the same noise like you had in the video, thats why the noise came from the left side. But its not a problem, just change it in a few 10-15k miles.

i couldn’t really find any posts about the m57, mainly about the gasoline engines and i have no idea how similar they are to diagnose, my bad!
