This would have been a better discussion had it been reflashed to stock. Its irrelevant in a sense due to the fact that the proper route was not taken to hide the flash. We dont truly know what would have been found by the tech had it been set to stock parameters. All of this is speculation and assumptions. I would like to see what Enzo has to say in regards to this.
To be clear, I am not implying the fault is with the ECU tuning house. Simply, there is a crack in my engine block and BMW is not covering the repair under warranty since they found a DME checksum error.
Have you written to BMWNA. I've had success in the past in getting repairs done that were way out of warranty. It's worth writing a polite letter to BMWNA requesting help with this issue.
