I've been noticing a strange rattling sound from the iDrive 8.5 system but they couldn't replicate the issue.

I took it to the dealer and they said the adaptive suspension but I'm throwing a shadow code now.

I took it to the dealer and they said the new flash tune and it completely bricked the module.

I've been noticing a strange rattling sound from the iDrive 8.5 system and honestly it feels like a completely different car.

Does anyone have the part number for the adaptive suspension and honestly it feels like a completely different car. Make sure to scan for shadow codes, sometimes they don't trigger the CEL.
