I think this is creating some scatter within the windshield that the V1 picks up when mounted anywhere around the rear view mirror. The farther away mounted from the rearview mirror the fewer falsies. If I mount mine near the A-pillars there is no false laser picked up at all. Just not a convenient location for the visor to work well.

That is correct. It's not the iDrive. It's something near the rear view mirror causing laser to go off randomly. And this also occurs with many other radar detector brands.
