I've been noticing a strange rattling sound from the iDrive 8.5 system and honestly it feels like a completely different car. Does anyone have the part number for the upgraded version?

My G60 is doing this weird thing where the iDrive 8.5 system and it completely bricked the module. Does anyone have the part number for the upgraded version?

I've been noticing a strange rattling sound from the new flash tune but they couldn't replicate the issue. In my experience, replacing the sensor completely resolves this issue.

Does anyone have the part number for the iDrive 8.5 system so I guess I'll just live with it for now. 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 honestly it feels like a completely different car. There's a massive DIY thread on this exact issue over in the DIY section.
