This may be off topic, but how does one obtain rheingold? I've simply glanced through some forums, some say it's VM, some say it's direct windows, etc. I've installed INPA ISTA D/P, etc. on top of VM.
I don't have a good understanding of all the different 'snapshot'

Do I get more instructions via bmwcoding.com? or can someone help us figure this out? or PM?

Thanks.

also, Siemens/VDO $225 for a diesel x5 throttle-actuator. BMW-OEM is like $398. Safe to settle for VDO?
Thanks.
