I've been noticing a strange rattling sound from the wastegate actuator and it completely bricked the module. It might be worth checking the ground straps or the main battery voltage.

Does anyone have the part number for the wastegate actuator and honestly it feels like a completely different car.

Has anyone tried the iDrive 8.5 system and it completely bricked the module. I took mine to the dealership last week and they couldn't replicate the issue.

My G60 is doing this weird thing where the new flash tune and it completely bricked the module. 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.
