FRM experience. went for drive to Buffalo from Toronto in x5 35d and had the ELM in the OBD connected to Torque and for fun watching volts, boost, water temps, exhaust gas temps... forgot to remove and ELM drained the battery over night. got a jump from a friendly samaritan who was driving a mdx. at first wouldn't start, then when i increased the rpms the x5 started right away.
lost: windows, stereo, dash lights, signal lights, all way flashers/hazard lights, and some other comfort features (heated seats maybe?)
took it to a guy in Toronto on my return and he charged $100 to fix provided the FRM was removed from the foot well, which we did
short story long, the FRM should not affect any aftermarket tunes???
