That's dishonest and may qualify as fraud.
Manufacturers warrant what they conceived. Not what aftermarket tuners make from it.
Don't be naïve: BMW only needs to run your VIN through their system to call up information that is logged, documenting what the car has gone through. And, unfortunately for you, it logs more info than you think. If you try to screw them, they will find out.
And if you go after the engine management tuning company, tell us how they handled your claim. Don't be surprised if they would tell you that no causal link is proved between their tune and the engine damage. And so you're left to your own devices.
