F20 issues

My 116i sport is now just gone one,I have done just over 5000 miles of local driving.One or two issues over 12 months.
Steering squeak - ended up having new steering column bushes fitted after 3 attempts to " grease " them,
New hatch lock and catch fitted,rear hatch rattling when driving around.
software upgrade due to wiper faults,apparently a recall anyway,power module replaced when garage tried to upgrade software and blew this module up.
Black splashes from exhaust up the back of rear apron, not a good look on a white car,dealer saying found no faults with engine .I've just given up on that one,Only just starting to get back to normal after these issues.oh and the start button.Car keeps telling me to depress clutch when clutch is depressed and foot on floor to make switch.
This my 2nd BMW first one was 318 which I had for 8 years no problems,not sure as of yet if this one will last that long.Probably sounding bit bitter and twisted but this is not what you expect from a brand new car of any sort never mind BMW.
