In Europe the OBD port was "opened up" for non-BMW dealers/shops to service our cars. This was driven by EU legislation to promote a competitive car servicing market (thanks for that EU). So this must be a European-wide problem! Not sure if the US market has opened up OBD in the same way - I think you guys have but not sure if it went this far?
BTW other brands are likely affected but BMW's have been targeted in the UK due to the high proposition of M-Sport models. The M-Sport cars are broken up for parts and sold on the market outside the UK as upgrades.
