I've used it as have many others with no noticeable issues. However, there are plenty of cases mentioned across forums of members cars being bricked during component changing (new idrive under warranty for example), where the dealer has resorted to asking for payment to change other modules due to 'corrupt code'. These are not low cost items either. Most professional coders say they could have reinstated the module through coding, but the dealers don't have that ability, the only option for them is component replacement. By the way, some of those bricking events are nothing to do with external coding, they might have happened anyway, but because of coding tamper flags are no longer covered under warranty.
