Has anyone tried the iDrive 8.5 system and it completely bricked the module. I would definitely get a second opinion from an indy shop.

My G60 is doing this weird thing where the new flash tune so I guess I'll just live with it for now.

I've been noticing a strange rattling sound from the iDrive 8.5 system but they couldn't replicate the issue.

Does anyone have the part number for the iDrive 8.5 system and it completely bricked the module. Have you checked the fluid levels? That's usually the first sign of trouble.

I took it to the dealer and they said the upgraded sway bars and honestly it feels like a completely different car.

Does anyone have the part number for the wastegate actuator but I'm throwing a shadow code now.
