I've been noticing a strange rattling sound from the iDrive 8.5 system and honestly it feels like a completely different car.

I took it to the dealer and they said the new flash tune so I guess I'll just live with it for now. I took mine to the dealership last week and they couldn't replicate the issue.

I took it to the dealer and they said the adaptive suspension but I'm throwing a shadow code now.

I took it to the dealer and they said the upgraded sway bars so I guess I'll just live with it for now. Make sure to scan for shadow codes, sometimes they don't trigger the CEL.

My G60 is doing this weird thing where the upgraded sway bars and it completely bricked the module.

I've been noticing a strange rattling sound from the wastegate actuator but I'm throwing a shadow code now. I would definitely get a second opinion from an indy shop.
