I test drove an E70 and whoa loved that baby, unfortunately still too expensive for my wallet. Good luck finding the root cause

This is exactly why I have not taken in to a tech! I've read about everyone's experience w/ tech's telling them it's normal, if it doesn't throw a code it's ok, etc. It's definitely not ok and it makes my damn feet and legs irritated when I'm stopped in traffic or at red lights... I sure hope someone can help me because i really enjoy the combination of utility and handling of this thing... but I am not trying to replace engine mounts, spark plugs, battery, etc trying to chase down a solution.
