Can you be more specific so we don't have to go through that thread again? Last time I read it, it was about the thread starter changing the FA - that's something else than some puny bimmercode coding.

Well, if you know is a bad advice why don't you say it? I mean, I appreciate the effort but you should tell me if is not ok. I give advices in here too, but I disclose if something might not be good....

Bad advice is bad advice, regardless who you give it to or if you follow your own advice or not.
Can you guys enlighten me what is the issue or what is negative about this?

That's what I have on The X1.
maybe my X4 has the same, not sure yet.
But my 2021 M340i (Canadian Performance Edition) has that TPMS (as per my Service advisor). I have replaced the RFT as soon as the car arrived and pick it up with new Michelin PS4 that I bought for it. But since I brought it home it bugs me non stop with "inflate tires). Not to mention it did not calibrate the system, I needed to put the dimensions manually. Plus the door jam says 38 and the computer suggests 49 PSI? I am confused.
Do you know what can be done?
I will gladly just throw the TPMS in the garbage and go without it. I will recheck on Monday to see if I have TPMS for sure.
All I got from this is that your dealer screwed up.

Don't have the link handy but that thread references a few others. The one that got me was a guy who made a change to iDrive, and the dealer voided his warranty for an issue related to the backup camera.

I would go even further and say - for RWD on street tires - Competition model has too much power and torque. He constantly fights oversteer and can not apply full throttle on exit. R comps might help but looks like

- x drive is the way to go on Comp Model
- manual with it significant reduction in torque is better suited for RWD
