Lots of SA are cool with mods when you are going for scheduled maintenance.

She said to just let service do its thing and the part can void warranty if they find that it caused any faults.

So it is just a matter of whether your tunes and parts affect any potential faults. I want to get an aftermarket chargepipe but I just don't want to risk voiding warranty. I will probably start tuning once warranty ends.

Let us know what your new SA says. I'd be interested to hear another Fields SA's perspective, since mine was so uneasy about it.
Wow, she sucks!

My SA and Tech are awesome. They replaced my engine on my car and put all my mods back on too. Just told me to be careful next time cause they can't help me next time. They always do my oil changes every 5k miles and other maintenance as well.

i have never seen a dealership replace an engine for free then reinstall the mods

Thank you everyone for the replies. I would love to do the BMS intake and a muffler delete to start, even though I am CPO. I have heard PSI, the tuning shop near me, does great work and will actually put your stock parts back on before you go for maintenance. What does everyone think? Good first two mods? If not, what would you do? Keep in mind, I have the factory warranty still. Thanks!

Head over to BMW of Farmington Hills in Michigan. Ask for SA, Todd and then tell him you want Brian the tech to do the work. He's awesome!
