Difficulty on first start and rattling

About three weeks ago my R53 started having trouble when it gets turned on for the first time in a given day, it worsened recently with a rattling from what sounds like the exhaust and the revs don't jump up high as they used to. In the video hopefully you can hear the rattling if you turn the sound up, and the revs seem to fluctuate abnormally.

Car is an auto, with DDM intake and 15% pulley.
