Typically, Dealer plugs it and see if there's any updates available.
For the most part, you will not need to revisit for Unlock because they're updating another part of the ECU.
Now, if you specifically have a major issue where the dealer needs to REPROGRAM/flash the car software your car then you will lose your tune but more than likely you will not lose the Unlock part.

Added breaks to your reply.
Thanks. So you are saying that if they end up having to flash a certain module, like the navigation, it should have no impact upon the tune that's resides on the DME, nor should they have any problems doing their flash.
If they were to flash the whole car's software, they should still not experience any problems doing so, but it would mean that your tune would get overwritten, worst case, and you would not have to send your DME back in for an unlock. If that's correct, then that's no big deal, because you would just flash it back.
Did I get it right?
Would love to get official confirmation of the above from
