If you've driven past the mileage requirements listed in the datapoint below that mentions it...then there will be a fault listed but it should be able to be cleared with the correct software/hardware:

ALL 6 datapoints in the info below must be met when swapping LCMs or IKE (instrument clusters). If you have the software/hardware to ZERO the mileage and overwrite the VIN to used or new modules...then your cooking with gas.

A BMW dealership does not have the software/hardware to install a USED IKE or LCM...they can only install new, or officially remanufactured/refurbished...which prevents dealerships from being tempted to do odometer roll backs.

Thanks Quick , I just read this Thanks
