Wrong choice of words to say that your BPC is an engine rattle. The BPC makes a sound at or near 2,200 rpms. It is more obvious in cold weather. Once the car warms up, the symptoms go away.
The BPC and/or your engine is not broken nor faulty. It is not a "rattle" either, seems the magnets in the solenoid are noisy when cold. But, there is no defect in the part.
Disconnect the electrical pigtail to the BPC and drive it after a cold soak. No noise ?
There are 2 screws that hold it in place that from time to time need to be GENTLY tightened that you may want to check.
