Does changing codes void the warranty and will BMW know when they read my remote?
It can be be enabled with coding as described in this forum. Easy enough to do with under $20 cable. Coding does not void warranty, but as a precaution some will wipe any coding done before taking in for service or trading in the vehicle; another reason to grab a cable and learn to do yourself.
