1200 Service Fact or B/S?

So i took my car in today for the 1200 mile service. The client advisor asked how I liked the car. Told him I loved it, he has a M3 ZCP. Told me "wait till you get it back today after we unlock it". And that "yea the throttle's been restricted". So I got the car back, feels the same to me. No post I've read on here indicates any type of restriction.... It was wet out today, so I didn't get a chance to really open up, but I'm pretty sure it's b/s... Any truth to this?

The only difference is that you can launch now. They didn't unlock shit.

Seriously, you need to call them and tell them they have to stop spreading these lies.

And people wonder why we don't trust the dealers...
