Had a F10 535i loaner for over a week, right front passenger door speaker started crackling after a few days (sounded like torn/busted paper cone) and music was not being played loud, seems the speakers cannot handle continuous bass even at low frequencies. Vehicle had regular Hi-Fi system (non-Logic7).

I had a rattle from my passenger seat on my E60.
They had to order a new seat base and replace - it sorted the problem but sounds like BMW haven't learned anything

The shift from D to S is extremely stubborn the first time I try to shift after the car has been started. I have to force it very hard, sometimes even almost hit it and it moves after about 5 seconds. After that first battle everything is nice and easy and the shifts can be done with my little finger. It's not related to engine or transmission temperature. It will happen even after half an hour driving only during the 1st shift I try. It's a sport auto box.
