1. Creak from the joint between driver's seat base and backrest - as soon as I mentioned, the SA acknowledged that it's a known issue and is a quick fix.
Something very minor...but never expected from a 7-8 month old BMW.

2. Ambient lighting - there's a thread here for this, and by now we all know it's a common issue. SA back in April said it's a physical damage and it's not covered under warranty. Now I can push back, but from the postings in that thread, it sounds like even the replacements are having problems, and I'm not entirely convinced to push back. My car is leased anyway, and I can live with how it is.

3. Car steers to the left when the steering wheel is exactly in the centre, and I had the wheel alignment at the same dealer just 2 months ago. Technician confirmed ( ) is loose (I think something to do with the steering wheel, not the tire wheels) and it can be fixed. Again..this is not even 1 year old, and I drive less than 1,300km per month mostly on suburb roads.

All these issues - I didn't have them in my 13 year ownership of a VW.
