Hi Guys,

I struggled with this as well but got it resolved 2 weeks ago when I took it to Crevier BMW in Santa Ana.

The shop foreman took a test drive with me and was able to figure out where my rattle was coming from.

2 things were addressed (on 2 separate occasions): an AC compressor line (there is a service bulletin from BMW on this) and another part in the steering column area, the name eludes me right now, something like "ZLC"? but I will post a reply once I get that paperwork in front of me.

My car is completely quiet and rattle free now and I didn't have any service issues like scuffs, scratches, etc. when I got my car back.

I have a new love for my car and I'm really enjoying a noise free cabin when accelerating from a stand still.

FYI,
Tim.
