Hi! Hope this finds you well amidst this pandemic! Quick question, the rattle is quieter when cold started but louder as it gets warmer and loudest at 2500-3500 rpms... any thoughts? thanks so much!

I would suspect the primary chain tensioner has failed or the balance shaft chain tensioner if you have one.
