BMW mod friendly dealer for turbo warranty?

EverybodyWildOu · 11-13-2013, 12:58 PM

Hey guys. Just wanted to know if anybody had any service advisors and/or techs that work at a BMW in NJ that would be willing to look the other way with my downpipes. I'm willing to give em a little tip for their troubles.

I'm basically contemplating removing the downpipes right now. And if they come off then they're not gonna be going back on. It's won't be worth the hassle anymore I feel.

Please let me know. If you'd feel more comfortable PMing me about this then please do so.

Most dealership will swap turbo as long you don't have meth,downpipes, & a tune.

I've seen a lot of people on here say that Rallye is a mod friendly dealer but of course that isn't in NJ. Good luck.

Talk to: http://www.zandmauto.com/

I'm sure they could work out some kind of deal for you. Actually, you may want to just remove the catless DP's and then just sell it rather than put it back on the car. I would be willing to go with you to Rallye if you go (I would talk to the SA up front before hand).

Yeah I might being going up to see them tomorrow to mount some tires for me. But you know me Faz, If possible I'd rather just not take em off.

And thanks guys. If I somehow had a definite "in" at rallye I'd make the drive.

Imran and i went on Sunday for his walnut blasting and my brake fluid flush. I'm going again this saturday for my truck driveline fluid flush.

I'm also trying to put together some projects with them for a Dension install.

Yeah as far as wiring and such it looks pretty straight forward. It's finding a place for the stuff and running the wiring that will probably be the most time consuming.

EverybodyWildOu · 11-15-2013, 09:19 PM

Bump. willing to pay a finders fee. lol. PM me if you know anyone.

EverybodyWildOu · 11-18-2013, 06:37 PM

Bump. I really don't want to go this route but if I can't find anyone I'll be taking the DPs off. So if anyone has any leads lmk please.

EverybodyWildOu · 11-23-2013, 10:34 AM

Ttt

EverybodyWildOu · 12-23-2013, 03:01 AM

Bump. Guess I'll be taking the DPs off. So I guess the question would be which dealer won't go through the DME's history. lol

+1, and I've always brought my car to them for service. Just last month right before my warranty was up they replaced my turbos, engine mounts, brakes, and a slew of other stuff for me and I told my SA that I had intake and a tune hooked up (tune was turned off, so I let him know that too) and he had absolutely no problem doing all of the work under warranty. I know it's not in PA but if you can't find a dealer in PA to do it for you then Long Island might not be too bad of a trip. If you decide to go there PM me and I'll give you the name of my SA and ill put in a call to him.

Hey what's up man. If I can't find anybody in my area I'll consider making the trek. I'm from Central Jersey. My car is out of warranty since it has 63k on the clock, but should still have the turbo + hpfp covered. I'm guessing your car still had a factory warranty or was a CPO?

Where central Jersey? I think I can put you in touch with the SA I use, luckily my dealer's been pretty friendly with my mods (FBO) and haven't given me any trouble as long the tunes un-installed (COBB)

Just swap for the stock ones. I just brought my car in for 2 leaking injectors, it took me 2 hours to swap intake/DPs/charge pipe with BOV for the stock ones
