Apparently it was out on the 9 today, according to bustimes.org.. not 100% accurate though.

Also says... its been giving the fleet number - 9062 according to bustimes.org

It has now gone to Chester-le-Street, where it will be allocated to "Coast & Country" service 8.

Is the emergency door as rattly as GNE's examples?

There seemed to be far fewer rattles from the quick drive that I had of it, but it is practically brand new still, with very few miles in comparison to Go North East's own examples.

That's good to hear
To be fair though GNE's own weren't great from the start! 
Arriva's newer examples seem to be alright as well

The newer 67 plate Streetlites at Darlington are absolutely shocking, they’ve got more rattles than mother care, there’s quite a few that don’t even last a full day in service due to problems with them, all the drivers hate them

Granted I don't use them that often, but the ones I've used on the 5 and X1 have always been fine
