The DME in my car needs to be bench unlocked and I found out about all this much before there was info regarding BMW increasing the security on the new DMEs (back in December). No one knew why it happened then because everyone thought only the new M2C and F80 M3/4 had the security lock, not a measly 330i!! We found out after my car was bricked that that was the issue.
I haven't been in touch with PTF personally after that incident because I'm wary of shippingy DME and worried about the shipping company losing it. But I know of others who have shipped their DMEs to get it bench unlocked and have been able to flash their car. If there was a brick and mortar place near where I live that could do it, I would've taken the chance!
