Yes, yes, and sure: it's awesome, wish I'd have done it sooner.
Getting my X3d a similar tune shortly.

None before the tune, but not why I chose this option. I have a failed AdBlue tank heater and don't want to deal with the hassle of dropping the tank to replace the innards. Besides, the cost alone was cheaper to get it tuned "off" and not worry about the other stuff on top of it all.
No issues since the tune, it's been about 17K miles. The engine oil stays much cleaner too, since the EGR duty cycle is set to 0%. As I said, should've done it sooner.

If you know it’s the NOx sensor, maybe just replace it. Or you could reset the code and then write the new tune without driving the car around, to prevent the code from popping up again.

The sensors are a bit pricey, I think around $450. Although if you’re under 80k miles it might be covered under the gov’t mandated emissions warranty. And yes, the new sensors would have to be “learned” by the car which takes an expensive scan tool.
OETuning was great, they’ll be doing my X3d soon. At least BMW realized those pricey sensors are prone to failure and they’ve extended factory warranty to 120k miles on them and a couple other bits.
You could also bide your time until MB calls you in to have it “fixed” under the agreed settlement. Shouldn’t be long.
What code(s) do you have exactly?

Ahh, sorry then. Hopefully Canada won’t be too far behind the US settlement.
Not sure how the SCR “fix” will resolve the NOx sensor issue. They’re kinda separate systems. NOx sensors relate to the DPF while SCR scrubs exhaust past the DPF.
True, a fault in either system means your DPF won’t be able to regen, but deleting the SCR won’t also delete the NOx sensor requirement. Then again, im
not familiar with the option you found.
