My weird noise when locking and unlocking is the active steering? Are you sure, it seems to work fine.

I'm sure. Been through two racks now. Electronic servo sounding thing is quite normal. Happens when unlocking and "going to sleep". Grinding or "cracking" sound is not quite normal. The active steering still was working. Get a good loaner because it could be several days before you get the car back.

My Ride: 2007 Titanium Gray 550i, with sport, nav, HUD, Logic7, sat radio, cold weather, rear side airbags, rear seat heaters, and it goes like a bat outta hell!

Weird...and I don't know if anyone else experiences it....but when I fill my gas tank up, I swear my car burps!

In many cultures its a sign of gratification. Its just showing its appreciation for being fed.

Thank You,

I'll just add that to my list. Should i tell them there is something wrong with the rack? or just that it makes a funky noise? Maybe i'll say i found it on TIS online. Ill search in my old version of TIS, doubt its there.
