M performance exhaust rattle solved?!

I've had the mpe for about 6 months now and I wouldn't trade it for anything else. It sounds and looks amazing and was easy to instal. The only downside is the rattle it makes during cold starts and a low rpm (1000-1500). Many members here say the tips cause this bit I removed them and still have the rattle. I then started the car without the tips again and listened closely, the rattle came from the right side or passenger side of the exhaust. I thought it was a hanger but turns out it's the exhaust valve. I did some research and found that it's the metal wire pin that connects the motor and the actual valve together. Apparently this is a common bmw issue. I plan to solve it this weekend by removing the exhaust and replacing the pin. I will update when I'm finished.
