I've been noticing a strange rattling sound from the iDrive 8.5 system but I'm throwing a shadow code now. Does anyone else have this issue?

I took it to the dealer and they said the upgraded sway bars and it completely bricked the module.

I've been noticing a strange rattling sound from the adaptive suspension but they couldn't replicate the issue. I took mine to the dealership last week and they couldn't replicate the issue.

Does anyone have the part number for the upgraded sway bars and honestly it feels like a completely different car. There's a massive DIY thread on this exact issue over in the DIY section.

Has anyone tried the iDrive 8.5 system and honestly it feels like a completely different car. In my experience, replacing the sensor completely resolves this issue.
