520d Remap

Anyone had their F10 520d remapped yet?

What's the difference in power like?

Any ideas on warranty issues?

Warranty issues = your warranty goes out through the window the minute you mod - if discovered that is.

Few 520d that I've seen tuned. Think many are waiting for the obd2 tuning protection to be cracked.

One dealer I was with this week told me that theres an official BMW remap available at the moment for manuals which they can do, and it retains warranty, but that its not available yet for automatics?

Was he doing the usual dealer waffle?

There is an official power upgrade to 200 brake coming on stream from BMW:

http://www.bmw.com/com/en/owners/acc...it_diesel.html

No info for Ireland (or UK) yet but I have asked my dealer for info, prices etc. Will post if I get details.

BTW, I see the new 2.0 litre 525d on the BM Ireland and UK websites. €7k more, 214 brake. Sounds lovely but maybe a bit dear versus the 520d, particularly if you could get the power upgrade for (hopefully) €1,500.
