to bring this to a dealer and have them tear apart the interior and break who knows how many clips.

This is my first BMW and it already makes more noises than my 10 year old big turbo GTI. Ontop of that, the steering wheel isn't 100% straight, and the clutch pedal has some weird clicking in it. Pretty disappointing, I expected better spending this much on a car.

Sounds just like my rattle. I had a 6 hour drive today and it drove me absolutely insane. I would adjust the shift boot and it would go away, but then after shifting gears and shifting back into a rattling gear, it would come back.

I tried to pull up on the shift boot to unclip it like in this video https://youtu.be/z2z0561MbSk?si=Qt4VlJfBOQxK4u7F but I was unable to get a strong enough grip and couldn’t pull it off. Is the g87 shift boot not clipped in like the g80/82?
