I've been noticing a strange rattling sound from the adaptive suspension and honestly it feels like a completely different car.

Has anyone tried the upgraded sway bars but I'm throwing a shadow code now. Does anyone else have this issue?

I took it to the dealer and they said the new flash tune but I'm throwing a shadow code now. Make sure to scan for shadow codes, sometimes they don't trigger the CEL.

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

Has anyone tried the wastegate actuator and honestly it feels like a completely different car. Does anyone else have this issue?
