Both Dinan and BMWNA can deny any claim and then the costly and time-consuming burden falls to the end user to pursue a claim, while the broken Bimmer sits.īMWNA is on the record, in written bulletins, that aftermarket tunes are a no-no, so they have clearly anticipated the possibility of warranty claims and have built themselves an out. The reason 'buyer beware' is prudent with any tune, from any manufacturer, is that if something major or catastrophic happens with the drive train or engine management equipment/software, it is subject to interpretation as to which entity becomes responsible. Just be a big boy, assume there is no warranty and mod away.ĭinan used to be based in Northern California. The only people claiming moss magnuss protects you are idiots and people selling mods. And in the end, BMW will have experts with data that should failure curves for power outputs, concluding the mod places the car into a configuration that led to the failure. Sure, if you have $50-75k to take a case to court, to find experts, etc etc. Oh, people will claim ***8220 The Moss Magnuissen act requires that the mfg prove the mod caused the failure***8221. You are violating USA and CA laws in you install a tune.īack in the day, Steve charged a ton for his mods but at least he stood behind his work. If BMW fails to honor the warranty due to a tune, nothing.Īlso, Dinan used to get their mods tested for emissions purposes. So if their part doesn***8217 t fail and causes your engine to blow up, nothing. Now they only warrant their part and any part ***8220 directly***8221 damaged by a failure of their part. They used to have a warranty that replaced BMWs. Dinan sucks, They did yearsa ago and still do, just to be clear.
