Of course if you don't give a F#ck you are free to tune away. IMO, nothing stays "locked" forever, someone will figure it out.

I respectively disagree. I don't care what relationship you think you have with your dealer. If you have a major issue ( Blown tranny, spun crank hub w/ motor damage F8X only hopefully, bent rods) you are not getting covered!! It's that simple. No one at a dealership can approve that type of repair. They will send someone to see what happened from BMW. Your BUDDY at the dealership isn't going to hook you up with a 20,000 motor repair
