I have the same noise as in the video but not as loud. It happens if I do a restart when the engine is hot and then let it go to idle. Noticed it 10K miles ago but nothing more serious has happened.
Yeah when I had the noise, it was just annoying and car was working fine with no hiccups. I took it in as a concerned owner and... you all know what happened

Yep, it usually occurs when the engine has been running for a bit and hot
