Shipping an ECU

Just a questions for the group.
What if the shipping company misplaces or damges your ECU..
How Fu#%ed would you be??
I am assuming you would have to go to BMW to get a replacement, and of course there goes your warranty??

Thx,
I understand that part and would ship insured via next day but still no guarantee, They can still lose it or damage it by mistake and IE no ECU chip anymore.
I am wondering if that happens, can you get an ECU from the dealer?

Or you can personally fly to miami, lay on the beach, and goto AA or boston, see a celtics game, and go to Turner.

I would imagine that you can get a new ecu from the dealer.

You can get your car reprogrammed at any shop that has access to AutoLogic with a new ECU. The ECU can be purchased separately from Tischer, so your local dealer won't need to know.
