2021 you'll need the one above it.

I have a question about when using the RaceChip app connected by your iPhone's BT. Is it still possible to use Apple Car Play. RaceChip seems to disable Car Play. If I disconnect the app will that turn off the RaceChip or will my car start in the last mode that RaceChip was in?

Replied to your PM.

You don't need to open up the App everytime you drive.
You only need to open it whenever you want to change the map.
It will remember last setting.

Thank you....You are correct. I'm able to play my playlist from my phone connected by BT to my car.

What does a flash tune offer for 50e and does it void warranty?

Can't say much about what flashtune offer for 50e, since I never test it.
But, flashtune is faster to get your warranty voided since you will need to unlock your DME and as soon as dealership plug-in their computer to your car, it will send data to HQ showing that your car has been tune.
Then, your warranty most likely is voided.
While RaceChip, if they don't. It is not easily noticeable by plugging in BMW diagnostic tool to the car.

Unfortunately, I don't have any shop recommendation in Richmond, VA.
Maybe other forum members can chime in.
