At first I though he was mistaken (still not entirely sure), but after he talked to several other departments in the dealership and they all agreed with what he had said. Has anyone been told anything remotely similar? My 550i has just over 44,000 miles and I would love to get my hands on the extra power.

I find it hard to believe that once your were out of your original warranty, as well as the Dinan warranty, that BMW NA would like to foot the bill for a major engine repair.
I think it would be the case that the dealership would happily take your money to CPO or to provide extended warranty. But if a major drivetrain problem occurred and you had Dinan Stage 5, I'd be interested to know if they'd be on board for the repair.
I've thought of this as well...
