My EF 85mm 1.8 now rattles

All of a sudden my 85mm rattles. There's definitely some loose bits inside the lens all of a sudden, if I pick it up and tilt it I can hear what sound like small bits rattling about inside. I can't see anything if looking through the glass and it appears to still work okay. Any ideas?

I am so tempted to start undoing screws to open it and release the bits as it bugs me now every time I pick it up.
