Have you tried removing the option with the Tech 2 and you can't get rid of it?

You likely just aren't doing the procedure correctly.
Hopefully that's the case anyway. This link and embedded link should help.

IIRC....

....you first need to disconnect the computer in the driver side trunk compartment. Once you get the Tech 2 to remove F45 from the car software, you then cannot plug that computer back in or it may re-load in the car.

I forget the steps needed in the Tech 2 tree itself.

Since you replaced the BCM have you done the "BCM/PCM relearn" so the modules will communicate with each other?
