Do you prefer OEM suspension to be installed by the independent shop? Any BMW dealer can do it.

Thanks for the response - just figured dealer shop rates for such work would be worth avoiding

Hey chenry ! I apologize for the miscommunication! I will go ahead and PM you now and we can get everything taken care of. Do you already have the suspension purchased and ready to go? Or were you also looking to purchase the suspension? Once again, I genuinely apologize for the miscommunication!

We will get you all taken care of swiftly

How does getting it installed by an independent shop affect warranty? Per shopbmwusa.com:


Most original BMW accessories that are installed on/in the vehicle prior to the delivery to the client will carry the full New Vehicle Limited Warranty. If the installation is made by a Dealer after the retail sale of the vehicle, the accessory will carry the remainder of the New Vehicle/SAV Limited Warranty period or the limited parts warranty for two years from the date of installation, whichever is greater. Warranty repairs do not constitute an extension of the original limited warranty period for the vehicle or any parts (including accessories) thereof. Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitations may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from State to State.

I believe the DME and idrive/ecu is reflashed in the process and you lose all the settings. Do the independent shops get a certification as an independent installer by BMW? Although this is for the mppsk, not sure about mpe if there's a reflash
