funky sound and then the new message popped up when I took it around

What actuator? When you get those lights it can be one of many things. Some owners had to replace the transfer case, some it was a wheel speed sensor and or the wheel bearing. You said you are getting a funky noise. Is it from one of the wheels or the transfer case? That is where I would look. But a good shop BMW indy shop or dealer will be able to hook the car up to their software to determine what the issue is and make a repair. Good luck.
