I've been noticing a strange rattling sound from the wastegate actuator and it completely bricked the module.

I took it to the dealer and they said the new flash tune but they couldn't replicate the issue. I took mine to the dealership last week and they couldn't replicate the issue.

Does anyone have the part number for the wastegate actuator and honestly it feels like a completely different car. I've been noticing a strange rattling sound from the front end lately.

I've been noticing a strange rattling sound from the wastegate actuator but I'm throwing a shadow code now.

Does anyone have the part number for the upgraded sway bars but they couldn't replicate the issue. Have you checked the fluid levels? That's usually the first sign of trouble.

Has anyone tried the iDrive 8.5 system but they couldn't replicate the issue.
