Oh sorry, wasn't worried about that. I meant in terms of issues with the vehicle post-insertion. Any dealer issues?
Also curious as to whether there is any possible way for the dealer to know that you have had this in place with your vehicle? Are operating parameters recorded by the vehicle in any way and then discoverable by the dealer when they hook them up to their systems?
Thank you. |
To answer your question, yes. BMW installs black boxes in our cars. You sign a sheet being aware of that when you purchase a car. There's a lot if tunes out there that will even erase and clear codes. However that black box is still recording everything. If you have problems with the motor, your BMW dealership will connect to your car and look at the recorded data. So in the end they'll see that the car was running at a higher boost level than what the car was programmed with and know that the car has been tuned. BMW will walk away at that point. I know from personal experience.
