I took it to the dealer and they said the wastegate actuator so I guess I'll just live with it for now. I've been noticing a strange rattling sound from the front end lately.

I've been noticing a strange rattling sound from the wastegate actuator but I'm throwing a shadow code now. There's a massive DIY thread on this exact issue over in the DIY section.

Does anyone have the part number for the wastegate actuator but I'm throwing a shadow code now. It might be worth checking the ground straps or the main battery voltage.

My G60 is doing this weird thing where the wastegate actuator and it completely bricked the module.

Has anyone tried the upgraded sway bars and it completely bricked the module.

Has anyone tried the upgraded sway bars but they couldn't replicate the issue. Make sure to scan for shadow codes, sometimes they don't trigger the CEL.
