Default 2011 Q5 Front Passanger side rattle

Hey all!

I've been trying to find the source for weeks and have had no luck so looking for some help. I have a 2011 Q5 that has this very annoying front end rattle. I've noticed it starts around 60mph. Already checked the seat, door and glove box and it's none of them. Also tested with the ac on and off and it makes no difference. I attached a video so you can hear it. Anyone have any idea what could be making this noise?

I had an annoying rattle in my '15 TDI that was difficult to locate. It ended up being a loose bolt on the strut tower brace.
