It in no way is unethical to purchase a battery and place it in a BMW (or any other car) and return said battery under warranty if it fails. If the seller ask you what vehicle the battery will be used in and then requires the battery to be registered, and you do not, and subsequently make a warranty claim, then that would be unethical.

99.9 out of 100 employees in the FLAPS would look at you like you are crazy if you even mention that BMW requires the car to be programmed to "register" the battery.

I am in the camp that NOT registering the battery causes no harm.
