M235i Rattling knocking noise on suspension, what could this be?

So when I got out of the car today I notice this noise, you can see from the video the noise happens when I'm pressing down on the driver side, it's coming from the rear wheel it looks like. Car has only 1600 miles... I plan on getting it looked at from the BMW Dealership here.

Anybody notice this sound on their 2015 BMW M235i?

Check lug nuts and heat shield, might just be a rock in the heat shield or a bent shield.

Strange - that's not supposed to happen 'til you book your appointment and get it to the dealer..

I know M3/M4 owners had similar sounds which were caused by pebbles between a heat shield and the brakes, could be that since our setup is quite similar.
