"popping" sound from exhaust

Hi guys,

Just received our X1, very happy with it and it looks fabulous.
But some questions arose, we have bought the sDrive 20i, which has the N20 engine also fond in the 28i, but it has a diesel rattle when standing in front of the car.
Some other people with the N20 engine who are experiencing the same?
And secondly, there are some pops in the exhaust, for example: If I leave the car in N and rev it up to around 2000-3000 and let the throttle go it has some popping sounds. same when I accelerate full and shift around 4000-5000 RPM, it has a "poof" sound when I upshift. It sounds like a sportscar, pretty cool actualy.
Isn't realy a problem, it's pretty awesome, but just wondering if other people hear the same things.
