(Background: through at least early 2015, the underseat subs were 2 ohms wired in parallel for Hi-Fi cars, and 8 ohms wired in series for HK cars.)

With how Technic wires these, I can very easily see ohm rating and wiring technique affecting the harness' operation -- particularly on parallel-wired setups that operate off a single output channel. I would email him and make him aware of the issue.
I have the HK audio. 2016 m235i here. I've got the oem woofers out of the car. I put my multimeter on one of them and it read 3.5 ohms.
