Test plans are performed as needed per customer complaints or per maintenence. Otherwise the vehicle won't even get scanned when in. No tech wants to program a vehicle unless it needs it trust me!!!! Warranty programing pays crap to the tech performing the work and there is always a chance the car might fail programing turning into a nightmare situation.

But note that any vehicle scanned has the data recorded and sent to germany. The tech has no control over that. It's used for diagnosis and warranty purposes.

My car was just in at Bmw for a edge protector "not sealing" (torn, not sure how)
And headlight adjustment rod broken. (Might have gotten broken during the dyno session) Did not get scanned. Went in with a downpipe and tune.
Check the link. I recommend you start on the last page. Apparently this went into effect within the last week.
