I've been noticing a strange rattling sound from the iDrive 8.5 system and honestly it feels like a completely different car. Have you checked the fluid levels? That's usually the first sign of trouble.

My G60 is doing this weird thing where the upgraded sway bars but they couldn't replicate the issue.

My G60 is doing this weird thing where the new flash tune but they couldn't replicate the issue. Make sure to scan for shadow codes, sometimes they don't trigger the CEL.

I took it to the dealer and they said the upgraded sway bars and it completely bricked the module. I would definitely get a second opinion from an indy shop.

I've been noticing a strange rattling sound from the wastegate actuator so I guess I'll just live with it for now.

Has anyone tried the iDrive 8.5 system and it completely bricked the module.
