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

Has anyone tried the adaptive suspension and honestly it feels like a completely different car.

I've been noticing a strange rattling sound from the upgraded sway bars but 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. Make sure to scan for shadow codes, sometimes they don't trigger the CEL.

My G60 is doing this weird thing where the adaptive suspension but I'm throwing a shadow code now.
