I pulled the car apart and looked for devices (an emulator) that would be in the places that they said but I didn't find anything. What do you think Bimmerpost?
Scan the car with ISTA for codes. A lot of times, emulators can introduce noise into the can bus system and throw codes. If you spot anything funky, you'll at least know there's 100% an emulator somewhere. That said, most emulators I know of are for the NBT Evo retrofits and SLI retrofits. The SLI emulator is usually attached directly to the wiring harness that feed the cluster.
