Just a thought...
Yes . Well from day one I thought edc in sport mode was cool so drove with it on for first 1-2k miles....then after hearing all the rattles, I toned it down to comfort mode but it was too late. My previous car had coils and very stiff. The m feels even stiffer than that car and both had these rattles from bobbing up and down on crap LA roads.

Somehow I feel that the 19s, slight lowering, and stiffness of ride is the culprit...my 2011 328i rattles a fraction of what the M does and it's suspension is softer and tires have wider profile 17s...
