Also works for Windows 10

Works great so far. I've used it to code some airbag and brake light control parameters after an E39 M5 Touring rebuild and also a used LCM for my car (VIN and mileage). I installed this on Windows 10 using a YouTube tutorial.

Pros
  • Dope πŸ”₯
Cons
  • Compatibility

Broke when opening.

I have purchased one of these in the past and it has worked great. Just ordered this one and it arrived in a bag today, looks like the innards are just hanging out inside the case, apparently it didn't even turn on. I guess I just got a broken one, seeing a lot of good reviews I'm hoping to find a replacement.

Pros
  • Pleasant
Cons
  • Frequency

Actual Work Kit

I bought this to replace a previous one that just wouldn't connect to the machine. Connected and immediately reprogrammed. In addition, some bugs have been fixed. Unfortunately, the download link I received was detected by my software as infected malware. Luckily I had a spare copy. You get what you pay for. Not the cheapest, but I need reliability, not saving pennies.

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • I will add later

Customer support is fantastic! This scanner gives you a pretty deep level.

Support is fantastic! This scanner gives you pretty deep information - almost like a high-end professional scanner. It's not an INPA level product so don't expect it, but just before calibrating the sensor type it will give you all the codes, even the ones your BMW wants to set. The live data is pretty good too!

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Socket required

Great for e38! for tools and gadgets

Great little tool, software is the best there is. Installation on Windows '10 64 is difficult, but possible. Google it and you'll find a video on youtube, I can't link it here. Once the drivers are properly installed and you remove all entries from the registry, it will definitely work. I spent about 45 minutes installing it. I've already saved at least $200 coding and I've barely started using it. If you're going to use it on an E38 you'll need a 20-pin (round) converter, which you can buy…

Pros
  • Best in its niche
Cons
  • Not bad but...

Coded my e46 lighting control module perfectly

Product worked great. As previously mentioned, getting the drivers up and running wasn't easy. The software loaded perfectly on my Windows 8 64-bit laptop. However, the drivers for the obd 2 adapter had to be downloaded elsewhere. Then I had to get the computer to recognize them, it didn't do that automatically. It has several videos on YouTube. In general. As soon as it works. You can code some pretty crazy stuff. You can turn off the airbags, change the mileage, code the light control module,

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Not as thick as other options

Worked like a charm on Win 10 for 2005 BMW e53 4.8is

Even though the description says only for WinXP, you CAN install it on Win10 64-bit. There are several how-to videos and the BMW 1.4.0 software and drivers are freely available online if you look for them. I just cleared my trouble codes and reprogrammed the DRL options. For reference, pins 7 and 8 were already soldered together, which is what I received, which was great. The minidisk that came with it was pretty cracked, but that didn't matter since I was using downloaded software. If you get…

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Vulgarity

Compatible with E46 M3 and Windows 10 (with little effort)

Worked great. Used on the 2003 BMW M3 for LCM programming. In order for all vehicle modules to be read correctly, you must solder ports 1 and 2 and 7 and 8 (clearly marked in the adapter). I'm terrible at soldering but I was able to do this and the module read all modules easily. Operating system: Windows 10 (with some effort). This video shows everything you need to do to get Windows 10 working with device drivers: https://youtu.be/bZLhlfDmmogSoftware: I downloaded the drivers separately, but…

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Negative present
