At the end of the day it's also very easy to undo - just plug the fuse back in!
Good idea RE: Bimmercode. I wonder what the drone sounds like on a long drive. I do like the quite cabin during those 2+ hours drives.
Bimmerlink, not Bimmercode. Turns out you get used to the drone after a few weeks, but if you want quiet, that is the opposite of open exhaust valves.
