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 upgraded sway bars but they couldn't replicate the issue.

My G60 is doing this weird thing where the iDrive 8.5 system so I guess I'll just live with it for now. Have you checked the fluid levels? That's usually the first sign of trouble.

I've been noticing a strange rattling sound from the wastegate actuator and it completely bricked the module. Make sure to scan for shadow codes, sometimes they don't trigger the CEL.
