Our car had to go in 3 months after delivery, the boxing unit with the seat switches came off, apparently the screw in the inside was faulty and simply broke.
The dashboard area near the passenger vents is not in line by a good eye soar broken line, it is in your face and only expected maybe from 20k car not 90k one, simply shocking.
When I rest my arm on the door, you feel the seeking and how empty on the inside that cover is.
Not sure about the non x cars, like the new 5, but seriously considering time to move to other brands, BMW is certainly on the way down, volume was never in favour of quality.

On my 2017 X5 40e, if you placed your arm on the driver side door, or even slightly pushed on it...it would creak, sound empty, physically move and I always wondered when it would just break :-O Also, lots and lots of interior creaks, groans when going in and out of driveways and quite a few rattles on un-smooth roads!! Charger flap, also night perfect and a gap on the top panel by hood too!
BUT....2017 35d seems like it is built like a tank. NO creaks, NO groans, NO rattles, NO squeaks, NO hollow doors!!! The front windscreen (glass) could be better, but in most lights it looks fine. Side and rear glass is perfect though.
