Not sure if an idrive update alone would matter. I think they updated his DME with the newer software as well. But yes. His DME was reflashed and he lost the ability to flash his car.

Another thought, the first gear pull isn't as quick as I was expecting.
09/2019 is newer than mine. Wonder how you were able to get your car flashed and I couldn't. Lucky you Did the flashing process go without hiccups?

And first gear pull being not as quick. Is that your butt Dyno saying so? Or did you use some software to get numbers? Also, any idea how much boost the BM3 map produces?
