For the folks who have already tuned their cars, isn't anyone worried about voiding the warranty on a brand new car? Don't get me wrong, my previous was an 2011 E89 with Cobb tuning, FMIC, cold air intake, and BMW brake upgrade. But it was already out of warranty.

I read on another thread that if BMW wants to look close at the ECU they can determine it was modified even if a software only mod was un-installed before service. One story on that thread was the owner removed the tune and took his car for a non engine issue but they hooked up the OBD cable anyway and voided his warranty.

Even worse would be voiding the warranty for replacing the downpipes with a high flow catted DP...should have virtually nothing to do with the engine, but BMW has all the power.

Thoughts?
