I'm going to call the dealership Monday and see if they left it in some mode where the alarm doesn't do anything (like when they work on it in the shop). I did try to unplug the siren and it beeped at me, so I think it still works. I'm going to try to convince them that they broke it or mis-programmed it. Obviously I'm hesitant to take it back and get charged another $600 for a busted (?) alarm module... My car was the last off the lot that day, so hopefully they forgot something.

The nice thing about this is that the stupid alarm doesn't go off on its own anymore. Maybe I should make lemonade out of lemons here...
They know better, once they replace the unit all the setting go away. You would think BMW includes personalization with the unit replacement. I am starting to think Germain engeneering doesn't relate to electronics.
