Basically, the BMW warranty, new or CPO will NOT cover Dinan parts nor the parts the effect. That is a separate warranty provided by Dinan and serviced by the shop that you purchased and had the part installed at.
Really depends on your dealership.
Mine doesn't sell DINAN parts but they have confirmed in writing to me that the tune would not void the warranty. Some dealerships are very familiar with DINAN and don't really care if you have it installed.
Be careful how you interpret that. Voiding your entire warranty is NOT the same thing as charging you for a repair that is the result of aftermarket modifications. Also, if they are a DINAN dealer, then they will charge DINAN for the repairs. So to you, the warranty is not voided, the question is, who is paying for the work, DINAN, or BMW.
