Not an uncommon side effect.
+1. Since this rattle seemed to coincide with RX, give it some time and finish the process. Then, you can begin to experiment with different viscosity oils. For the 2700 buck alternative, you've got nothing to lose. It could just clear up in time, just as others mentioned in this thread, have. Wouldn't say the dealer analysis is the definitive solution until you give it some time.
I agree though, I wouldn't go for the $2700 either. Good Luck.
