Exclamation Rod bearing?

Got my car from the dealer two weeks ago and I'm still under warranty. Getting the car checked out at Bmw and at a reputable indy shop for safe measure but I still recorded a video and would like to know any opinions. Let me know what you guys think =[

If you're under warranty, why not take it to the dealer?

I bought the car from an independent dealer but I'm still under their 2 month bumper to bumper warranty. I want to make sure I pinpoint the problem before going to them with any demands.

Your S65 ticking noise is loud and clear ! I wouldn't drive it in this situation ..
Advice :
Stop driving your car and take it ASAP to your BMW/Dealer for further diagnosis !
Please let us know...

"Brutaliation3 days ago
