Why is my BMW Z4 making a weird noise?

I recently purchased a used BMW Z4 and I've noticed that it makes a strange noise when I accelerate. It almost sounds like something is rattling or grinding. Could this be an issue with the engine or something else? I want to make sure I address this before it becomes a bigger problem.

Hi Samantha, it's not uncommon for a used car to have some strange noises. It could be a number of things, but I suggest getting it checked out by a mechanic just to be safe. They can diagnose the issue and give you some options for fixing it.
