Now if you coded your car, that wouldn't have caused the engine to blow up (talking about coding it to close mirrors and such). So I wouldn't even worry about that. Plus you can deny it and say a guy at bmw did it for you. What I would like to know honestly is the truth. If you really did blow the motor, what were you doing when it happened. What did BMW say the root cause was? Were you racing and using your paddle shifters to late at redline rpms? |

Any of these systems can be detected by BMW, even if you remove teh units and clear error codes.
Your average BMW dealer tech cannot do it, but when there is a large claim like a entire engine BMW themselves take a data dump from the car and check all parameters. They will then pick up parameters that have been exceeded by the aftermarket system. I have seen this done on a couple cars over the years.

Instead of trolling us, why don't you either tell us the truth about what happened or give us details on exactly what they said went wrong. Engines don't just explode and drop and drag at cruise speeds. Piggyback or not.
