About 2 weeks ago, the drivers side wont soft close. so i have to close the door a little harder.
when i close the door i hear the mechanism trying to do something and 2 seconds later try again

anyone ever experience this?
A simple google search with a few key words like (BMW soft close malfunction) should bring up some old threads that discuss this issue.

In regards to the noise you hear...that is the soft-close feature double checking that the door is actually closed. As you can see in the info below...when the door is MANUALLY closed (or slammed)...effectively bypassing the soft close feature...the system is designed to check that the door is closed:
