arjelee is on a distinguished road
Thanks for the reply, but BMW SI bulletin says differently (see the actual text below) The thing is that after upgrading the system says that I upgraded to version 8.0, after rebooting it appears that nothing has changed en in the setting menu it still stated 1-1/72.

According to the information on this site, version 1-1/80 should be present from version V17 onwards, this means that it's on every following version CD until a new version is available.

When I want to upgrade to version 1-1/80 wich CD do I have to burn, 17 or any CD after that??

Thanks,

Arjen

After activation of the automatic coding, the DIS tester tells you to follow the instructions on the monitor
