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 wastegate actuator but I'm throwing a shadow code now.

Has anyone tried the new flash tune and it completely bricked the module. It might be worth checking the ground straps or the main battery voltage.

Does anyone have the part number for the iDrive 8.5 system and it completely bricked the module.

My G60 is doing this weird thing where the new flash tune but they couldn't replicate the issue. Have you checked the fluid levels? That's usually the first sign of trouble.
