Idle sound 50TDI

Can anyone figure out what this noise is on idle only? Even if I slightly touch the accelerator the noise goes away.

Car is on 82k miles I’ve owned it since 20k miles and has had alternator done within the last 5k miles

Sounds fine, although idle seems a little fast. Possibly a little tappity, when was oil change last done? Oil specification?

I can’t seem to play the video? Service was done around 7k miles ago by a specialist will be going for its service soon also be getting him to look at the noise, doesn’t seem right to me. I have seen couple of other people complain about the same noise on a q7 50TDI too. Car has got extended warranty too but I already know Audi will say it’s fine nothing wrong…..
