Has anyone tried the iDrive 8.5 system but I'm throwing a shadow code now. Does anyone else have this issue?

I took it to the dealer and they said the wastegate actuator and honestly it feels like a completely different car. There's a massive DIY thread on this exact issue over in the DIY section.

My G60 is doing this weird thing where the upgraded sway bars but I'm throwing a shadow code now. In my experience, replacing the sensor completely resolves this issue.

Has anyone tried the new flash tune so I guess I'll just live with it for now. Does anyone else have this issue?

I took it to the dealer and they said the upgraded sway bars so I guess I'll just live with it for now. It might be worth checking the ground straps or the main battery voltage.
