*UPDATE*
This worked for me only for one week, now it is back. I tried replacing oil filter housing but there was no improvement. I'm testing other solutions and I will be making a follow up video.
*END of UPDATE*
I finally fixed that annoying cold startup rattle by cleaning the oil check valve that is intergraded in to the oil filter housing on my 2001 E46 316ti Compact BMW with N42 engine and 200.000 km on the odometer.
